Unique moment: “Macedonia Xakousti” for the sake of Antetokounmpo in Boston! (video)

Newsroom December 22 02:12

 

Greek colors and Greek sounds in the half-time of the Boston-Bucks NBA game which ended with a victory for the  Milwaukee team with 120-107.

The unique moment was in the half-time of the in Boston and -of course- it was for the sake of Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The Celtics wanted at the half-time to honor the Greek forward dedicating the evening to Hellenism.

So during the break of the game a Greek traditional dance group appeared on the floor of the stadium and danced the well known song “Macedonia Xakousti” (trnsl. “Macedonia famous”).
