The three Antetokounmpo brothers reunited on the same team! The Bucks played emotional cards to keep him, more ruthlessly than the Lakers drafted Bronny

Jianghu is not about fighting and killing, it is about human relations! The so-called rules are always in the hands of the person at the top of the pyramid. Antetokounmpo is one of the top superstars in the NBA today. In order to keep him, the Bucks repeatedly played the emotional card. They previously signed Antetokounmpo's older brother Thanasis Antetokounmpo on a one-year minimum salary contract. On October 14, the Bucks signed Antetokounmpo's fifth brother Alex Antetokounmpo on a two-way contract.

It is reported that the Bucks’ first wish is to introduce fourth brother Kostas Antetokounmpo on a two-way contract. But Costas has exceeded the years required to sign a two-way contract. Costas has signed two-way contracts with the Mavericks, Lakers and Bulls. Kostas has played in the European League in recent seasons and this summer he signed a two-year contract with Greek giants Olympiakos. In addition, in this year's Men's Basketball European Championship, Kostas served as an inside substitute for the Greek men's basketball team. He averaged 12.2 minutes per game, scored 3.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.4 blocks, and shot 86.7% from the field. He was the team's block leader.

Antetokounmpo achieved his goal of playing with the three brothers Thanasis and Kostas in the Greek men’s basketball team. But in the NBA, Antetokounmpo has not yet realized that the three brothers can play together. Alex Antetokounmpo was born in 2001 and is a forward 2.03 meters tall. He went to high school in the United States and then went to La Liga Murcia to play. Alex entered the NBA draft in 2021, but fell short.

Alex once played for the Raptors 905, a development league team affiliated with the Raptors. From 2022 to 2024, Alex played for the Wisconsin Herd, a development league team affiliated with the Bucks. Later, Alex went to play in the European League. Alex's personal abilities are not as good as those of his three older brothers - Antetokounmpo, Thanasis and Kostas.

Objectively speaking, it is difficult for Alex to get a two-way contract with an NBA team based on his personal strength. However, others can "fight for dad", and Alex can "fight for brother". Bronny became a Lakers player thanks to James. Alex now has a two-way contract with the Bucks thanks to Antetokounmpo.

In the new season, Antetokounmpo will have the opportunity to realize his dream of playing at the same time as Thanasis and Alex. It is reported that the Bucks signed Alex without Antetokounmpo's knowledge. Antetokounmpo also received the Bucks' sincerity. He said in a recent interview on the show: "I am very loyal. Milwaukee has given me everything, and they have changed the lives of me and my family. I want to live in the moment, and I want to win another championship for the Bucks."

This is the way of the world in the NBA. If you respect me, I will respect you. The Bucks tried their best to keep Antetokounmpo. They waived Lillard in the offseason and signed Myles Turner to fill the vacancy at the center position. It will be difficult for the Bucks' lineup in the new season to win the championship. After all, there is a gap between the Thunder, Nuggets, Rockets and other teams in the Western Conference. However, the Bucks still have a chance to break through and reach the Finals in the Eastern Conference. After all, the Celtics fell due to a serious injury to Tatum, and the Pacers fell to a serious injury to Haliburton. The Bucks lost two strong competitors to break through from the Eastern Conference.

Antetokounmpo still has two years left on his contract. The Bucks have signed two of his brothers one after another, which may ensure that Antetokounmpo will not be traded in the middle of the new season. As for waiting until the summer of 2026, Antetokounmpo's decision to stay or leave will most likely depend on the Bucks' record this season.
