Thanasis Antetokounmpo Fantasy Stats

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Milwaukee Bucks agreed to a one-year, $2.9 million contract with forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo. The 33-year-old spent five seasons with the Bucks before missing the 2024 campaign because of a torn Achilles. In 198 regular-season contests in Milwaukee, he averaged 2.4 points while winning an NBA championship in 2021. All that considered, Antetokounmpo won't see any interest from fantasy managers, considering he probably won't play much. However, the new deal likely means his younger brother, two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, isn't going anywhere in the near future after months of trade rumblings.

According to Eurohoops.net, free agent forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo has been added to the Greek national team training camp roster to prepare for the EuroBasket 2025 tournament beginning at the end of August. Antetokounmpo didn't play professionally in 2024-25 after undergoing surgery in May 2024 to repair a torn Achilles tendon. The 33-year-old played five of his six NBA seasons in Milwaukee, winning an NBA championship in 2021 alongside his younger brother Giannis Antetokounmpo. If the older Antetokounmpo remains healthy, he will likely finish his professional playing career overseas.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo has suffered a torn Achilles and is set to undergo surgery, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic. The older brother of multi-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo has just finished his sixth NBA season, averaging 0.9 points across 4.6 minutes of action. He has a total of 198 regular-season games of experience under his belt in the Association. Together with his brother, Antetokounmpo won the NBA championship with the Bucks in 2021.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo exercised his $1.88 million player option on Saturday. The 29-year-old averaged 3.6 points and 2.1 assists throughout 9.9 minutes of work last season. He'll likely continue to play sparingly in 2022-23, potentially getting a few starts here or there. However, he shouldn't offer much for managers and will likely go undrafted in most fantasy leagues heading into October.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo (calf) is available for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is good news with the Bucks down a handful of players due to safety protocols. Antetokounmpo was listed as doubtful previously, but appears healthy enough to play on Saturday. That being said, Antetokounmpo and Semi Ojeleye should both find their way into the rotation. Neither of them are fantastic fantasy options, but could have some deep league appeal.

Milwaukee Bucks power forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo (leg) has been downgraded to out for Friday's contest against the Pelicans due to a strained right soleus in his leg. Antetokounmpo would likely have been in line for a sizable minutes allotment Friday if healthy, but his absence stands to funnel ample minutes in the direction of Jordan Nwora, DeMarcus Cousinsand Sandro Mamukelashvili. Antetokounmpo has scored in double figures just twice thus far in 2021-22, severely capping any season-long fantasy intrigue. His next chance to return to action comes Saturday vs. Cleveland.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo (calf) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He suffered the injury on Wednesday, but played 21 minutes in that contest. He doesn't offer a ton of value, but stood to gain more value with Bobby Portis and Giannis Antetokounmpo sidelined due to protocols. Now, DeMarcus Cousins (personal) could be looking at a heavy workload or Sandro Mamukelashvili will get a legitimate chance in the rotation. Cousins could be a decent streaming option while the Bucks are shorthanded.

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo led all scorers with 23 points in Saturday's 102-96 loss to the Knicks, shooting 8-for-15 from the field and a really nice 4-for-5 from downtown. He added 10 rebounds for a double-double with five assists and two steals. The Bucks were rolling with their youngsters, with multiple starters -- including Giannis Antetokounmpo -- missing the game. Jordan Nwora also had a double-double in a start with 21 points and 10 rebounds. Giannis and others will surely be fine for Monday's clash with the Clippers, so consider this a one-off thing by Thanasis and company.
