Basketball NBA superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo made reporters confused at the press conference.
The Milwaukee Bucks, represented by Antetokounmpo, had just beaten the Orlando Magic 109–102, and the team’s best scorer was all smiles. The Greek has made bold statements to the media before, but this time he outdid himself.
Antetokounmpo was asked about his birthday plans when he turns 28 on Tuesday. The answer was completely shameless.
– Let’s see if my girlfriend has prepared something. Maybe a birthday cake, birthday car, watch or jewelry. I don’t want to go to dinner because I have a game the next day. I want to rest, recover and play with the kids, the Bucks star began in a civilized way.
Then the answer started pouring in.
– After we put the kids to bed, anything can happen, Antetokounmpo said and winked at the reporters.
– Things can get a little wild. It’s my birthday, after all.

The Greek’s chatty nature was crowned by a Homer Simpson plush toy, which he held under his arm during the interview.
Supplier by Tim Reynolds by Bucks Sandro Mamukelashvili had won a soft toy while visiting the Universal theme park and brought it with him to the match. However, Georgia had left the homer in the locker room and Antetokounmpo was going to take it home to his own kids.
