These kids went from nothing to being superstars. In most cases, living below the poverty line and struggling in basketball during high school and college, as well as in life. This is proof that you should NEVER give up on your dreams.
Him saying “I wanna be NBA player” was so fricken cute and just made me cry cuz look at where he is now. He is a legend. He really made a name of himself
I live in Athens and when I go out people of the street just like Giannis come towards you and try to sell cds etc and say Acuna matata man don't worry be happy
For me I have always been a Bucks fan but I don't see anything wrong with bandwagon fans. I will welcome you with open arms. Why would I hate someone who likes the same team I do? I've never understood people like that.
Wow. I have always been proud about my Greek heritage. I love learning about fellow Greeks who have been through the same struggles that my parents and grandparents went through! It would be a dream come true to be as humble and amazing as Yiannis. 💓🏀🇬🇷
I'm a HUGE Giannis fan but I never really knew the more detailed part of his story. Great Vid. BUT I gotta admit, I was a fan since 2015 but not since he was drafted.
I feel so bad for my self because I was taking same steps to become a future NBA player being foreigner and I couldn't handle some pressure in all my personal difficulties. At least, now I'm making my legacy studying hard to have a good life. For all you guys that you can become somebody. Don't wait to have support of any person to become wherever you want to be. Don't wait until tomorrow because you can gain your time lost. Sacrifice knowing that one is going to try to be better than you. All ways think about what you are going to become and work for it. There is not excuse to become what ever you want even when things look very difficult, be responsible about your actions. 💪
The NBA has the right guys in the league. I’m a jus say this, the nba doesn’t jus fall in ur lap......all these guys are truly blessed yo.....and it’s nice to see most of them realize GOD put them in every situation they were in, only GOD knows ur true potential. He knows what u can handle. They all overcame everythingggggggg, and I mean everythingggggggg. Stay blessed Giannis
I coached a kid at west Chester pa YMCA with the last name of Asparagus...no lie. I always told him he would make the NBA if he tried. Hopefully you get to make a video on him in the future
Nice story. Good thing he was strong minded. What caught me in this story is something i started to notice about a lot of us. The ones who are called great players. Known and unknown to the world. Many never touch the game of basketball until the age of thirtheen. Did you ever noticed this about really good players?
@@kenkran1 He was born and raised in Greece, he speaks Greek, he has never been to Nigeria, and when he was drafted to the Bucks, he waved the Greek flag... He's of Nigerian decent, but of Greek heritage!
Mann I hated this guy when they played the Raptors in Playoffs because he was like all over the raps but now that I know how humble he is I started to like him.
awesome story of the guy. From humble beginnings to the NBA. truly God gives us talents and this kid, has a heart to care and help Others. You'd think he'd go crazy to buy whatever he could but his love for family kept him grounded. So many in USA don't know what struggling is. So many complain about the smallest dumbest thing's. learn from Jesus Christ the saviour... appreciate every breath and every penny.
this is just one of the best videos i have ever seen Handles UP your gettin a share, like, sub and im gonna turn on notifications and this is going in my playlist
It Proofs the biggest difference between someone who practices everyday to dream better for his life then someone who wears sick and flashy shoes who say's that hes going to be in the NBA.
This channel underrated

THOSESHOES CP bruh the bucks are the best young team in the NBA. They're 3-5 years away from being elite.
+THOSESHOES CP same here
He never touched Basketball until 13 years old? 22-13=9. He only played Basketball for 9 years and he's this good now? I'll support bucks now too LOL.
For me I have always been a Bucks fan but I don't see anything wrong with bandwagon fans. I will welcome you with open arms. Why would I hate someone who likes the same team I do? I've never understood people like that.
He is gonna be a top five player in the league VERY soon #TheGreekFreak #FeartheDeer

Kawhi
Swervoh Jr,
Lebron

Wow. I have always been proud about my Greek heritage. I love learning about fellow Greeks who have been through the same struggles that my parents and grandparents went through! It would be a dream come true to be as humble and amazing as Yiannis. 💓🏀🇬🇷
All dislikes came from raptors fan.
benny sajor lol xD
benny sajor I gave it a like altho I'm a raptors fan (but I hate what he did last night)
Anyone would be offended if their team got raped. Don't worry you're a good fan by respecting the opponent's star player.
im a raptors fan and love this guys game
LETS GO BUCKS
How do you only have 11 thousand subs. Your one of the best nba youtubers I've seen lately
I’m in tears. This kid deserves it all!!!
And look at him now so ripped and is your current MVP
Giannis, Lebron, Jimmy Butler, amazing success story's starting from the hardest struggles to becoming nba's biggest stars

I actually want to be a nba player myself I’m 13 and 5’5 with horrible genes but from this video this definitely inspired me to work much harder
You deserve 10 trillion subs
Were happy to have him here in Milwaukee!.. What a great human being...
what do the raptors and possums have in common??
They both play dead at home and get killed on the road
I'm a HUGE Giannis fan but I never really knew the more detailed part of his story. Great Vid. BUT I gotta admit, I was a fan since 2015 but not since he was drafted.

Hardwork, determination and courage is the key to success
I coached a kid at west Chester pa YMCA with the last name of Asparagus...no lie. I always told him he would make the NBA if he tried. Hopefully you get to make a video on him in the future
I didn't know Giannis had suck a rough childhood. I'm surprised more people aren't talking about his story.
By far the best nba story i have ever heard.
Nice story. Good thing he was strong minded. What caught me in this story is something i started to notice about a lot of us. The ones who are called great players. Known and unknown to the world. Many never touch the game of basketball until the age of thirtheen. Did you ever noticed this about really good players?
This story is great, congrats now NBA Champion!!!!

He’s Nigerian
@@kenkran1 He was born and raised in Greece, he speaks Greek, he has never been to Nigeria, and when he was drafted to the Bucks, he waved the Greek flag... He's of Nigerian decent, but of Greek heritage!
New sub just watched two of your vids.
You knows he's the goat when he never picked up a basketball until he was 13 and made it to the NBA🐐👌
Got yourself a sub ! Nice work man
Mann I hated this guy when they played the Raptors in Playoffs because he was like all over the raps but now that I know how humble he is I started to like him.
thanks for making this on my favorite player and im from Milwaukee
Who's watching this in 2019? I really hope Giannis Antetokounmpo makes his team to win a championship someday in the future
Omg this channel so damn under rated
been one of my favorite players since he was drafted... GREEK FREEK!!!
I like the bucks because of this man, I always want the best for a humble brother
This would’ve bought tears to millions of readers...
great vid, great quality. I'll add one to your subscribers.
He's so fucking humble 😢😢 I almost cried
Title: from streets to superstars
Me: FrOm To StReEts SuPeRsTaRs
Fiirrsst!!! Γιάνναρεε
you deserve much more subs great video🖒🖒🖒
This channel should have 1 billion subs
awesome story of the guy. From humble beginnings to the NBA. truly God gives us talents and this kid, has a heart to care and help Others.
You'd think he'd go crazy to buy whatever he could but his love for family kept him grounded. So many in USA don't know what struggling is. So many complain about the smallest dumbest thing's. learn from Jesus Christ the saviour... appreciate every breath and every penny.
who's watching in the 2017-2018 season as giannis is killing the league
this is just one of the best videos i have ever seen Handles UP your gettin a share, like, sub and im gonna turn on notifications and this is going in my playlist

I'm learning about Athens Greece don't want to make it about me but it's a cool connection (:
I’m a raptors fan but you gotta love him
This made me cry 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

It Proofs the biggest difference between someone who practices everyday to dream better for his life then someone who wears sick and flashy shoes who say's that hes going to be in the NBA.
Yo this channel is lit
