Giannis Antetokounmpo cracks top-20 of Forbes’ Highest Paid Athletes

The wait to return to basketball is likely leaving the ultra competitive Giannis Antetokounmpo more than a little agitated given the position the Milwaukee Bucks were in before the coronavirus pandemic brought the NBA season to a halt.

With the latest developments suggesting the season will resume in late July, Antetokounmpo and the Bucks will eventually get a chance to finish the campaign by chasing down the NBA’s ultimate success. While that wait goes on, Antetokounmpo can at least take solace in his incredible success off the course.

That was highlighted on Friday as Forbes released the 2020 edition of their famed, annual highest paid athletes list, with Giannis Antetokounmpo slotting in at 18th overall.
