Giannis Antetokounmpo appears in wrestling ring (video)

The NBA champ was greeted with huge enthusiasm

Newsroom August 26 12:15

NBA champion Giannis Antetokounmpo followed up Tuesday’s appearance at the Brewers game by getting in the ring Wednesday night.

The Bucks superstar made a surprise appearance at AEW’s pro wrestling event at UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena.

Giannis cheered from the front row and got in the ring with a championship belt (maybe Bobby Portis’?) where he took to the turnbuckle and yelled “Bucks in Six!”
