The 2025 offseason, like every other years, is an anxious moment for almost all NBA teams. Who are they going to have back when the new season opens. For Milwaukee Bucks fans, the conversation is mostly about Giannis Antetokounmpo.

They have two concerns though. One is the trade rumors although it has no ground according to the latest reports. Second is if he can stay healthy.
The latter became more prominent the other day while the Greek Freak is in Brazil trying to entertain fans there.

Giannis is in the South American country for a vacation and watch a volleyball game together with his three brothers Thanasis, Kostas, and Francis. He also visited fans on the sideline and that’s where it got anxious for him.

The Greek Freak was trying to gift some locals with an unforgettable moment by doing a dunk on a court that had his face painted on. The scary thing happened as he slipped before he can even jump.

Looks like everything is okay after that as he as he can only laugh about the blooper and then addressed the spectators “I’m good. I’m good.”
Giannis Antetokounmpo has fans worried for a moment
Antetokounmpo remains as the savior of the team and him injured would mean the new season going to waste. They can’t afford to lose him not that they already don’t have Damian Lillard for a foreseeable future.

Well, he’s okay. No need to worry. Teams who still want him can have faith that he will be healthy by the next season. That is if he goes against his oath that he will be loyal.
