Giannis Antetokounmpo's Brother Alex Signs Contract with Spain's UCAM Murcia
Alexandros Antetokounmpo, the brother of Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, announced he signed a deal with UCAM Murcia in Spain on Monday:
Giannis reacted to the news, revealing how proud he is of his brother:
According to Eurohoops, Antetokounmpo's deal is for three years and features an NBA out clause for every summer.
In May, Antetokounmpo told Nikos Varlas of Eurohoops that he preferred to play professionally in Europe instead of pursuing a college career after he graduated from Dominican High School.
"I am examining my options, I have a few choices from the States, but I have decided to play in Europe," Antetokounmpo said. "I want to become a pro as soon as possible. I was born and raised in Europe, I know European basketball and the best thing for me would be to sign a contract with a European club. I will have to train and compete against grown men, I will experience strong competition and pressure and I will evolve on every level."
Given his family pedigree, it would not be a surprise to see an NBA team take a chance on him in the near future.
After all, Giannis is one of the premier players in the NBA as the reigning league MVP who could very well be on his way to another one this season. He is the primary reason the Bucks have the best record in the league this season and is looking to add a championship to his already head-turning resume.
Elsewhere, Thanasis Antetokounmpo has played for the Bucks and New York Knicks, while Kostas Antetokounmpo has played for the Dallas Mavericks and Los Angeles Lakers.
It is not difficult to envision four Antetokounmpos in the league at the same time in the coming seasons if Alexandros plays well in Spain.
