Thanasis Antetokounmpo is back with the Milwaukee Bucks after sitting out a season to recover from a torn Achilles tendon.
Antetokounmpo, the older brother of two-time MVP and Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, played for Milwaukee from 2019-24. He was off the Bucks’ roster last season while dealing with his injury.
The Bucks announced Sunday they had re-signed the 33-year-old forward, who currently is playing for Greece in EuroBasket.
