How BAD is Thanasis Antetokounmpo Actually?



How BAD is Thanasis Antetokounmpo Actually?

Only a few NBA players experienced a continuous decline in performance over the years and still managed to stay in the NBA but considering it is the Premier basketball league of the world it makes sense that being said there is one clear outlier in this trend an NBA player who has decreased output almost

Every year but has still been lingering on the bench for many years and that player goes by the nasis antenna Koo many see this as a clear case of nepotism due to his brother being such an important player for the Milwaukee Bucks which may be true and we can all

Agree that thanasis is far from a good NBA player but how bad is he actually welcome to sports FIA let’s get into it that man right there got the best job security in the history of civilization right there who’s that he’s not a bad

Player I know I didn’t say he was a bad player but I’m saying they they not job security they got for job security that boy going to always have a job long as his brother’s the man as you may be aware all the antenna Copo brothers were born in Athens to

Nigerian parents thanasis is the oldest of the five brothers born in July 1992 much like the rest of his brothers he began playing basketball at youth camps in his home country Greece however back home he was not given the same opportunities in basketball as you might see from kids

Growing up in the USA in Greece basketball is not the most popular sport so opportunities to play basketball were certainly limited growing up with soak being the most popular sport in Greece that being said one thing was certainly on his side and that would be his insane genetics which all the antenna Koo

Brothers had while not as tall as his younger brother yanis the naris is still 6’7 tall with a solid build so a career playing professional basketball was probably always on the cards the naris began his basketball Journey quite late when he was just 16 years old where he

Played for junior teams in Athens he played semi-professionally with the same club for a couple of years before finally getting his chance at professional basketball age 20 the NIS joined the men’s team after his brother yanis had the pair looked like they’ll be together on draft night as well with

The naris originally declaring for the 2013 NBA draft and this was a slightly surprising move with the naris as he averaged just 12.2 points 4.9 rebound downs and one assist per game this was the same season that his younger brother Yannis was also outperforming him in the

End the NCIS decided to build his stock in Greece for one more season while yanis was drafted in the first round of the 2013 NBA draft by the Bucks as for thanasis he was later selected in the 2013 NBA development league draft so thanasis got a chance to impress NBA

Teams a solid season with the Delaware 87ers landed the naris in the second round of the 2014 NBA Draft selected by the New York Knicks as a late second round pick the NASA got a big opportunity to impress in the summer league however expectations wouldn’t live up to reality and thanasis had a

Poor overall performance as a result his next two seasons saw him remain in the D-League after playing just two games and scoring six points in those two games the narcis looked like he was done in the NBA while younger brother Yannis was becoming an NBA Superstar the narcis was

Out of the NBA and it looked as though he would have to rebuild his career in Europe after a single season in Andora the naris returned to Greece this time with a different team it seemed like a great move for the naris as the team is

Not only one of the biggest sides in Greece but also an instant competitor of the Euro league the naris joined a team that was already massively successful and they continued their winning streak with successive Greek titles in 2018 and 2019 19 in that time the narcis was

Named the most spectacular player of the Greek League at the end of the second successful campaign there were some slightly surprising rumors regarding a return to the NBA for thanasis while it was clear that he was not getting a huge amount of interest from a variety of teams the milwauke buck certainly made

It clear they wanted to add another antenna Koo brother to their roster theosis was signed to a 2-year deal with a buck to partner with his brother Yannis unlike his time in New York it was clear from early on that the naris would be a part of the rotation for the

Bucks and never seen as a starter the naris became a 10-minute per night contributor his minutes went down considerably in the playoffs but that didn’t have a huge impact on Milwaukee in fact the naris won a ring with the Bucks in 2021 and featured in 13 of their playoff games that season despite

These being garbage minutes the buck still decided to keep the narcis and he signed another 2-year extension despite his regular season minutes going down in the last couple of Seasons the buck still gave the naris another contract in 2023 so it might seem like the naris must be doing something right for all

These opportunities right so how bad is the naris actually if you look at the teams he has played for and the accolades he’s accumulated it might seem like the naris antenna Kubo is getting a bit too much hate the older antenna Koo brother is an NBA champion two-time

Greek League champion and was also on the D-League all defensive team team he is featured in almost 200 games in the NBA coming off the bench in 95% of those games but when you take a look further into his stats then it looks a bit worse for Theus as there is no statistical

Category where the nasus really stands out across his entire NBA career his average just 2.6 points per game while barely able to put up an assist every other game he gathers in around 1.7 rebounds while not shooting really efficiently for a guy his size and stature much like his younger brother

The yanis Theus is a pretty poor three-point shooter averaging just 15% from Beyond The Ark considering Theus has won a couple of aades for his impressive defensive performances in the D-League those performances didn’t really translate to the big leagues the nasis averages just 0.3 steals per game

And 0.2 blocks per game across his entire career in fact his career higher in blocks in a single game is just two which is around the numbers of an average NBA player so it seems like thanasis is not a great NBA player teams would usually give players who barely

Contribute to a team oneyear contracts and not player friendly 2-year deals the narcis is barely playing an on court role for the buck he has more turnovers per game than Steals and blocks combined at 31 years old this is probably the best naris will ever be he isn’t very

Versatile and doesn’t have any key outstanding attributes however saying he’s the worst player in the NBA might be a stretch too far he is still a pretty phenomenal talent but there’s no doubt that this case of nepotism has been very frustrating to NBA fans considering some of the low lights for

The narus the narus may not be a good NBA player but I think his support for his younger brother yanis has been his main contributing factor for Milwaukee the two brothers seem like they have a unbreakable Bond and just bringing in the narcis has likely lifted the morale

Of jannis by a lot and these statistics cannot be seen on the stat sheet the naris antina Copo is not the worst player in NBA history however there have been very few awful NBA players who’ve gotten as many opportunities as a 31-year-old after failing to even be

Good enough for the D- League the Naros was able to rebuild his basketball career in Greece but the truth is a couple of Greek League titles are not enough to validate another chance at the NBA and after two seasons where he barely featured for the bucks it would

Have made sense for Milwaukee to move on from him right NBA bench has Chang around a lot and it was clear that the nasis was not good enough for the league but he was given another 2-year contract the same thing happened in 2023 with the NASA getting another extension by

Milwaukee in the latest offseason there were some rumors that the Knicks wanted to bring him back but the Bucks held on to the nasus overall there is absolutely no doubt that the narus anono would still be playing in Europe if his brother was not a multiple time MVP the fact that

The n is getting these opportunities with the Bucks is no surprise Yannis clearly had some influence on the team when it came to signing his brother as well as keeping a hold of him the worst player in the NBA might be a little too far but the NASA Ana Koo might be the

Luckiest player in the league that’s it for the video do you think that the NASA s Koo is the worst player in the NBA why not put your thoughts in the comments below and while you’re down there hit that like And subscribe button thanks for watching sports VI we’ll see you next time

  1. Thanasis started played basketball at a late age and has not been able to counterbalance this. Had he started earlier, he would have been a much greater player.

  2. every nba team WILL have players that basically wont play and if they do its only in garbage time, you just cant have a whole 15 man roster of good roleplayers.
    If u have someone that wont play its way better to just bring in a good hypeman and a support for his brother who is an all time great.

  3. Thannasis is keeping Giannis sane in Milwaukee, without his family, Giannis would have moved elsewhere.
    I dont think white people understand that concept.

  4. of course Thanasis know better basketball than many NBA players, because in NBA they don't play basketball, but the statistics of the players' agencies

  5. Greece is not a big country when it comes to basketball? Where the F did you get that information from. They are CRAZY about basketball šŸ˜…

  6. I mean in the end the 2 million/year contract is pennies compared to the worth of having Giannis and keeping Giannis happy. Just think how much worse the Bucks would stand financially without their super star. And he probably is an irreplacable player aswell. He is the backbone of the Milwaukee team even if they are now loaded with stars.

  7. I am pretty sure there were, there are and there will be far more untalented and unskilled NBA players. Is it the expanding marketing of NBA, is it nepotism (look at some sons of ex good players that tried the NBA), is it the agents, lets not overdo it with criticism.

    Also, coming out, especially now, after all these years of not playing regulary and judging him for averaging more turnovers than steals, blocks, points or whatever is a "no sh!t sherlock" situation for me. Noone gets better just by training or by getting 2 mins gametime for so many years. Much more when we are talking about a complete outsider who was raised in a conservative and not yet open / multicultural society (greece) with racism, fear, poverty, unequality and with the responsibility to look after his younger brothers.

    How many of you would like to be on that potision? How many of you would sacrifice your own – yes even Euroleague – career for your brother? Jokes aside (ex. I would love to be a cheerleader for x millions dollars) you all know that there isnt much dignity into that and as we are all human beings and Thanassis aint different, you should stop hating and overreacting for no reason. Be decent as human beings. Dont be sh@theads <3 Try to learn something from your so called "worst Nba player"

  8. Thanasis needs to build up his skillset and then go to another team and build his own legacy! Look at Seth Curry – he guy can play and although he's not as good as his superstar brother Steph Curry, he's still curving out his own respectable career!

  9. his 3 point percentage at euroleague was very good though.I remember it cause I was surprised.he could have been an elite 3&d player if he stayed at eurolegue but money is more at nba even for a bench player.
    p.s : his athleticism is top.

  10. Giannis completely changed his family's legacy. He was born a beggar and his kids will be born millionaires

  11. NBA is a business look he is a cheap player that keeps a valuable player in happy playing condition, the bucks won and his luck and hard work saved him

  12. This whole video could be summed up in 5 seconds:

    He's the brother of the best player in the world and he will always have a job wherever his brother is.

    /end video

  13. Thanasis isn't the oldest of the 5 brothers and they weren't all born in Greece. Sure, not a great NBA player, but definitely not the worse. Minute's are a factor as well. Players arent going to do much in 5 minutes lol His career high is near 30 ppg and he's scored over 20 various times in NBA games. He could still player for other teams. Especially non championship contenders.

  14. This whole family has no bag. Only Giannis is good because he utilizes his bigger frame to attack the rim

  15. It's funny to meme on the man. But everyone knows he's worth every penny. Sort of like Deandre Jordan on the Nuggets. People liked to meme on him winning a ring. But everyone on that team (coach Malone in particular) raves about what he brings the team in the locker room. And that is always worth a few million bucks.

  16. He is the best player if only he keeps training harder and they give him enough time to play he will be more excellent at basketball .

  17. Giannis is a real one. Making his sure his brother gets millions despite not performing at all on that level he supposed to.
