As the global coronavirus pandemic continues, The 'Greek Freak', NBA’s MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo has sent a massive thank you to all the healthcare workers fighting the deadly virus.
His post on Twitter comes after the Mayor of Zografou, Vassilis Thodas announced that the Antetokounmpo family have donated 10,000 surgical masks for the coronavirus pandemic to Zografou, the suburb east of Athens where he started playing basketball.
"As a family we feel the need to thank all our young heroes, doctors, nurses, all those who risk their health, to return as soon as possible to our normalcy and the people we love," Giannis tweeted.
(1/2) Σαν οικογένεια αισθανομαστε την ανάγκη να ευχαριστήσουμε ολους τους νέους μας ήρωες, γιατρούς, νοσηλευτές , όλους εκείνους που ρισκάρουν την υγεία τους, για να γυρίσουμε το συντομότερο πίσω στην κανονικότητά μας και στους ανθρώπους που αγαπάμε.

2/2Να ξέρετε μας δίνετε δύναμη και πως αυτη η πράξη αυτοθυσιας είναι μια πολύτιμη προίκα που θα μας συνοδεύει για πάντα.
Φίλοι ας κάνουμε και εμείς το χρέος μας, μένουμε σπίτι για να κάνουμε το έργο των ηρώων μας πιο εύκολο. Καλή δύναμη σ όλους! Με αγάπη οικογένεια Αντετοκουνμπο— Giannis Antetokounmpo (@Giannis_An34) April 9, 2020
"Know that you give us strength and that this act of self-sacrifice is a precious dowry that will accompany us forever. Friends, let us do our duty, we stay home to make the work of our heroes easier. Good strength to all! With love, the Antetokounmpo family," his second tweet reads.
The mother of his child, Mariah Riddlesprigger also posted on Twitter, which Giannis retweeted.
There are the obvious reasons to stay inside right now, but what is your personal reason for staying inside???? My personal reason is so that my sisters can finally meet our son! We can only get through this together! 💛 #StayHome
