Giannis always reminds us in his speeches how down-to-earth he is. What values does he carry. How much respect he shows and deserves. How much he loves and and cares about his teammates and the team. He is a worthy role model for young children. How you can not love an man like that? We ❤ you Gianni! For sure a future hall of famer!!

Thank you Gianni and the rest of the boys representing Greece this year in the EuroBaskset. You guys made us proud. I believe in you boys to lift a EuroBasket and WorldCup. Pame Ellada 🇬🇷☝️

I literally love him so much, i want to meet him so bad, it's my 16th birthday dream, I am currently 14 so hopefully I can when I am 16

[markbleichwehl]

It's great to have a player who's humble and caring

The winner, the champion is best player that's it.

I'm a die hard OKC fan, always will be, but Giannis has been my favorite NBA player since 2013 when he got drafted. Loved his story, and his legend only grew. I've rooted for many guys luke him who just can't seem to find their footing. But Giannis became so much better than any of us could have imagined. And his humbleness his just icing on the cake. Future HoF player and will go down in history as the European GOAT of basketball.

Gianni's defination of the best in the world will make him the goat ngl

[owenegbenoma]

So ready for Warriors-Bucks finals. A classic 7 game series.
I’m confident that’s how this season will play out.

[archerylu]

From watching the bucks 15 years ago and still today I cannot stress how lucky we are to have Giannis. Role model on and off the court, may he inspire us to all be better every single day. Onto the next 🏀

[iloveHighEndCars]

Giannis, I can’t find words to describe that man.

Top athletes are awesome when they speak with great character and charisma. Giannis makes the NBA better!! A couple of the other league stars, Nets, are not drawing positive interest in the league because they create dumpster fires on their teams. Intelligent thinking, great communication, great charisma, a sense of humour, team attitude… these are not job requirements, but awesome to see in the leagues premiere players.

Giannis we love and respect you for all you say and do. May God bless you and your family and continue your mission! You just deserve the best #1 ❤️🇬🇷 Thank you for being what you are.

[oluwatobiesan]

I just love how he's always grateful and doesn't take the luxuries and opportunities for granted.

[soccerprophet]

there is Will and there is destiny...
As ancient Greeks said ....:Gods will help you but you need to move your hands too..you
need to act too
and Giannis tries his best ...to be the best. Definelly the Gods are with him...Bless

How can you not have love for this man. You don't have to be a fan to appreciate who Giannis is. Thankfully I've been a fan for about 5 yrs now. Been able to watch him grow and develop his game.

[panagiotisgousetis]

Giannis is not only MVP .Giannis is also the most valuable person. RESPECT.

[michaelhession]

I'm glad Giannis is tuning out all the noise in the off-season. Considering that the ESPN Subscribing trolls are trying to roast him because they think he is not the best player in the world, and his closest friend in the media department got called out by Stephen A Smith not even 24 hours after SAS said that he wasn't a Top 5 player. I hope King Freak not only goes out there, and puts up even better numbers, I hope he makes every one of those trolls eat their words. He's on a mission, make sure the Larry O'Brien Trophy comes back to Fiserv Forum.

[andreastsitouras]

I was one of the lucky 5k-6k Greeks that followed the Greek team into the knockout stage of the Eurobasket in Berlin.
I cheered and shouted and laughed and cried along with our players.
Hope that I'll be lucky enough to see Giannis and the rest of the guys again up close in the 2023 World Cup.
Thank you for the memories, but job's not done yet.
Πάμε Ελλαδαρα και πάμε Γιανναρε!
