With only a few days remaining before the US 2024 Presidential Election, former President Donald Trump raised questions about Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Greek heritage. The remarks were made during a rally at the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.
“And tell me who has more Greek in him? The Greek or me?” Trump asked the crowd. “I think we have about the same, right? He is some.”
At the time of Trump’s comments, Antetokounmpo was competing in a game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. After the match, he was asked about the former President’s remarks and appeared to dismiss them.
“I’m not aware of the comments… At the end of the day, I don’t follow politics that much. And the little that I follow, I try to keep my political views to myself and my family,” Antetokounmpo said.
“I’m here to, you know, win basketball games and not answer to non-basketball questions. But, I wish both candidates best of luck.”
