When Giannis Antetokounmpo was ten years old, he came across a picture of himself running after his hero Allen Iverson to collect his autograph following every basketball game. 

He has developed into a second Allen Iverson 19 years later.

With the upcoming Olympics in Paris, it is critical for basketball teams to prepare for Group Play. Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks and Greece faced Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets and Serbia on Monday. Jokic guided the winning team.

Despite being merely a warm-up match, this demonstrated Serbia’s superiority. In the victory, Jokic passed the ball six times, scored sixteen points, and pulled down eight rebounds. Despite his impressive performance, Antetokounmpo’s 17 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists were insufficient to secure the victory.
