Report: Alex Antetokounmpo, Brother of Giannis, to Play in Europe in Preparation for NBA

Alex Antetokounmpo, the youngest brother of Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, is reportedly going to play professional basketball in Europe next season rather than play college basketball.

“I am examining my options, I have a few choices from the States, but I have decided to play in Europe,” Antetokounmpo told Eurohoops' Nikos Varlas. “I want to become a pro as soon as possible. I was born and raised in Europe, I know European basketball and the best thing for me would be to sign a contract with a European club. I will have to train and compete against grown men, I will experience strong competition and pressure and I will evolve on every level.
