The 7-foot-tall Greek Freak, Giannis Antetokounmpo, took a break this summer that he truly deserved. Following a difficult season and a challenging experience with the Greek national team at the Paris Olympics, Giannis and his brothers had a peaceful holiday in Mykonos. The star player for the Bucks posted pictures of his vacation on Instagram, wearing a floral shirt and swim trunks. Even though he tried to stay out of the spotlight, Giannis was still noticed by his loyal fans. As per the Greek City Times, he kindly agreed to take photos and sign autographs, even while walking through the island’s narrow streets in the early morning. Significantly, Mariah Riddlesprigger, his fiancée who became engaged to Giannis in April, successfully avoided attention during the journey.
Doc Rivers’ Concerns
Despite Giannis grabbing attention with his summer holiday, Doc Rivers, his coach, has raised worries about his summer pursuits. During a discussion with Bill Simmons, Rivers pointed out that Giannis’s rigorous training and conditioning regimen might actually be detrimental. Rivers said another reason you admire him is because no one will work harder than him. “His level of fitness is impressively high, particularly during the summer months.” Rivers even playfully mentioned that he hoped Greece’s team would exit the tournament early to avoid Giannis from pushing himself too hard.
Due to injuries, Giannis did not make it to the playoffs for the last two years, leading Rivers to stress the significance of having a well-rounded off-season. At the moment, Giannis appears to be relishing his free time, but it will be important for him to find a balance between relaxation and getting ready for the upcoming NBA season.
