Petrounias to Giannis Antetokounmpo: "Let's go player, give them pain"

All Greeks are on the side of the national basketball team in the effort that starts today in the Eurobasket, with much hope pinned on NBA superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Greece are medal favourites and everyone expects Antetokounmpo and his teammates to lift the team to the podium after 13 years.

Giannis gave the signal for the launch on Instagram by writing: "Business time". One of the thousands of comments made on the post was that of Eleftherios Petrounias.

The gymnastics Olympic gold medallist, who a few days ago won the 6th gold in the European hoops championship, wrote to Giannis: "Let's go, player. Give them pain".
