Greece ended up one game short of qualifying for the Tokyo Olympics after losing to the Czech Republic in a qualifying tournament championship game on July 4.
Giannis Antetokounmpo was not playing for Greece in that game because his Milwaukee Bucks were preparing for the NBA Finals, which commenced only a couple of days later.
However, the best player on the Greek team — and maybe in the world — is looking ahead to EuroBasket next September and hinted on Twitter he plans to play.
He takes great pride representing his home country Greece and even took the NBA Larry O’Brien Trophy there this off season.
