Giannis Antetokounmpo Welcomes Fourth Child Amid Playoff Exit – Future with Bucks in Question as EuroBasket Beckons
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s 2024-25 season was filled with personal milestones and professional challenges, marking a significant chapter in his NBA and family journey. The Milwaukee Bucks star, known as the “Greek Freak,” welcomed his fourth child, Aria Capri, with wife Mariah Antetokounmpo. The couple, who tied the knot in Greece during the previous offseason—with teammate Khris Middleton serving as best man—are now proud parents of two sons, Liam Charles (born in 2020) and Maverick Shai (2021), and two daughters, Eva Brooke (2023) and newborn Aria, achieving a family balance that mirrors Giannis’ versatility on the court.
Despite strong individual numbers—averaging 30.6 points, 12.2 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.2 blocks, and 0.9 steals over 72 games—Giannis and the Bucks faced playoff disappointment. The team was eliminated in five games by the Indiana Pacers, marking an early exit from the 2025 NBA Playoffs. As the season ended, attention turned to Giannis’ future. While his loyalty to Milwaukee remains a defining feature of his career since being drafted 15th overall in 2013, speculation surrounds a potential offseason trade if organizational dynamics shift.
Looking ahead, Giannis is expected to represent Greece in EuroBasket 2025, continuing a proud international career that includes appearances in the Olympics and multiple FIBA tournaments. Whether staying in Milwaukee or charting a new course, his journey remains one of basketball’s most compelling narratives.
