Although Giannis Antetokounmpo has long been regarded as one of the NBA’s best players, it is well known that he is always striving to improve.

The Greek professional basketball player of Nigerian heritage intends to improve and will collaborate with one of the greatest players in history.

Antetokounmpo discussed his plans to fly to Houston in the months leading up to the 2023-24 season to practice with former American professional basketball player of Nigerian ancestry Hakeem Olajuwon on the 48 Minutes podcast.

Antetokounmpo was compared to Olajuwon in the interview since they both wear the number 34 jersey and are of Nigerian heritage.

Antetokounmpo was born in Greece to Nigerian parents, whilst Olajuwon was born in Lagos but migrated overseas.

Despite their Nigerian roots, Antetokoumpo plays for Greece, while Olajuwon, who was born in Lagos, chose to play for the United States.

Giannis, who just visited Nigeria with his mother, remarked that Olajuwon was an inspiration to him.
