Giannis Antetokounmpo has proven time and again that the most important thing to him is winning. Although it’s a common theme among elite NBA players, the latest comment from the Milwaukee Bucks star about teammate Damian Lillard put his selflessness on full display.
During a recent interview, Antetokounmpo discussed the importance of Lillard’s embracing Milwaukee as “his team.” And from the sound of it, Antetokounmpo also appears ready for as much “Dame Time” as possible.
“I am his biggest fan,” Antetokounmpo said, via The Athletic’s Eric Nehm. “Good or bad, I ride with Dame until the f—ing end. I ride with Dame. Like I’ve been saying this over and over again. This. Is. His. Team. Down the stretch, he’s going to get the ball. There’s nothing else that we will do. I don’t know how else to put it. I don’t know what else to say.
