Giannis Antetokounmpo has been ranked No. 1 by several lists that have ranked the NBA’s best ahead of the 2022-23 season. The Greek Freak is a force of nature, unstoppable offensively and defensively, and taking on the most significant challenges head-on. Despite being just 27, Giannis has already achieved nearly everything that a player can achieve in the NBA, winning MVPs, the Finals MVP, a title, and signing a massive supermax contract worth almost $230 million.
It’s safe to say Giannis will not lack money again. In fact, he will likely make a lot more and secure generational wealth before he retires. But having grown up in very poor circumstances, Giannis isn’t one to brag about his wealth either. The Greek Freak is as humble as they come, and one of the funniest players in the league to boot. And both those facts intersected hilariously recently when Giannis uploaded something to Instagram.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Shared A Hilarious Post About Money On Instagram
Giannis was playing with one of the filters that randomly selects one prompt. There has been a Twitter trend recently which says “You’re a 10, but…” usually naming some flaw a person might have to end the sentence. And the randomized return Giannis got suggested that he spends money he doesn’t have, which is ironic considering he’s now wealthier than a vast majority of the people in this world.
“Well I’m on a budget.”
Fans also found it quite funny, considering that Giannis’ wealth is hardly a secret, and took to the comments to say as much.
“Nah.. the definitely don’t know you.”
“He said ‘broke where?'”
“How can you not love this guy?!”
“Giannis 100000 times richer than whoever made that filter.”
“Bro this man order Chick Fil-A when he wins leagues, he ain’t spending it like that.”
“That 50 Piece nugget was expensive huh.”
“Gotta buy those diapers man.”
“15 million from the Bucks and maybe more from nike in the long run. These diapers are expensive.”
“They dont know what the word “guaranteed” means.”
“Shouldn’t have bought that truck of Oreo’s.”
“They ain’t see that contract twin.”
“No more Oreo cookies!”
Antetokounmpo isn’t one to brag about his wealth, but this prompt made it kind of inevitable. In any case, Giannis has earned every penny of his contract and endorsements, he has worked as hard as anyone in history to reach this point. And with the league about to be his for a while to come, there’s likely to be a lot more wealth incoming in the future.
