In the Giannis Antetokounmpo movie “Rise,” it was revealed that the Oklahoma City Thunder had interest in the two-time MVP during the 2013 NBA draft.
The Thunder were wanting the young Antetokounmpo to stay overseas for a couple of years before playing in the NBA as a draft and stash candidate.
“They said they loved his tape. But they also said they wanna send him back to Europe for a few years to develop.”
