Milwaukee on Sunday re-signed forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo, the older brother of Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Antetokounmpo, who missed the 2024-25 season while recovering for a torn Achilles tendon, is currently playing for Greece in EuroBasket 2025.
His contract, guaranteed for one year and $2.9 million per an ESPN report on Sunday, indicates that Giannis, 30, a two-time NBA MVP and nine-time All-Star, is staying with Milwaukee to start the season.
Thanasis Antetokounmpo, 33, played in 34 games as a reserve for the Bucks in 2023-24 and averaged 0.9 points, 0.4 rebounds, 0.5 assists and 4.6 minutes.
He has played in 198 games (11 starts) for the New York Knicks (two games in 2015-16) and Bucks (2019-24), averaging 2.4 points, 1.6 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 7.7 minutes.
New York selected Antetokounmpo in the second round of the 2014 NBA Draft, but he played overseas in other professional leagues in 2013-15, and in Spain (2016-17) and Greece (2017-19). He first signed as a free agent with Milwaukee in July 2019.
