Giannis Antetokounmpo

When Giannis Antetokounmpo first dashed onto the NBA scene, he was notably slender, standing at 6-foot-9 and weighing just 190 pounds. Fast forward, and by 2021, this remarkable athlete had transformed into a muscular powerhouse, standing at an even more towering 6-foot-11 and weighing in at 242 pounds.

The “Greek Freak,” as he’s affectionately known, has not only bulked up but also honed his skills to become a formidable force on the court. His dedication paid off spectacularly when he clinched the NBA’s MVP award not once but twice, in 2019 and 2020, making him the first European to achieve such a feat since Dirk Nowitzki in 2007.
