Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo Celebrates Luka Doncic Becoming Face Of Lakers

The NBA world was sent into a frenzy on Saturday night when the Dallas Mavericks sent Slovenian superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers in a three-team deal that saw Anthony Davis head to Dallas. It was arguably the biggest and most shocking trade in NBA history, with the 25-year-old and five-time All-NBA forward getting sent to one of basketball’s premier franchises.

Someone who watched the trade very closely and had plenty of thoughts was Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo. Hailing from Greece, Antetokounmpo is one of the league’s other megastars that comes from Europe, alongisde Doncic and Nikola Jokic.
