The Surprising Secret Behind the Bucks’ Bold Move to Sign Alex Antetokounmpo Revealed
So, the Milwaukee Bucks just pulled a move that’s got everyone raising an eyebrow — they signed Alex Antetokounmpo to a two-way contract, making it a trio of Antetokounmpos on one roster. Yep, three brothers in the same NBA team, a first in league history. Now, you might wonder, is this simply a family reunion strategy to keep Giannis comfortable, or a savvy front office play to hold onto their franchise superstar who’s been eyeing a championship like a prize just one step out of reach? It’s fascinating to think… can a bond as tight as family truly sway Giannis’ decision to stick around, or will his championship hunger override even the strongest of brotherly ties? Let’s dive in and unpack what this unconventional signing really signals for the Bucks and for Giannis’ future.
On Monday, it was announced that the Milwaukee Bucks had signed Alex Antetokounmpo to a two-way contract.
According to Shams Charania, the team’s intentions with this signing are very obvious.
“The Bucks are clearly doing everything they can to make Giannis feel as comfortable as possible,” Charania reported.

The Bucks now have three Antetokounmpos in their roster: Giannis, Alex, and Thanasis.
This is the first time in NBA history that one team has had three brothers under contract, and it’s a move to make Giannis happy.
If he has his family around him, perhaps he will stay with the team beyond the upcoming season.
Of course, Giannis’ desire to win another championship is so strong that even the deepest family bonds might not be enough.
Alex most recently played in 2022-24, appearing in 50 games with the Wisconsin Herd, the Bucks’ NBA G League affiliate team.
He averaged 5.8 points and 3.0 rebounds during that time.
It’s very unlikely that Alex or Thanasis will get many minutes in the new season, but the fact that the Bucks signed both of them sends a message.
Giannis’ happiness will be valued more than anything else for this front office, now and long into the future.
Still, chances are currently high that this will be his last season in Milwaukee.
He and his management have been reportedly evaluating all of their options, and they are leaving every door open.
He has waited long enough for a return to the Finals, and if he doesn’t get it this season, he could be heading for greener pastures.
In fact, he might demand a trade at the deadline if the season doesn’t get off to a great start.
He has his two brothers beside him, making NBA history, but that doesn’t mean that Giannis will remain in a Bucks jersey forever.
