Giannis Antetokounmpo the Sneaker of the Basketball MVP

What's good community, the last NBA season is longer over, which is definitely positive for my sleep rhythm. In the end LeBron James won the championship with his Los Angeles Lakers against the Miami Heat. What went rather unnoticed during the playoffs, is that Giannis Antetokounmpo won his second MVP. A little info for those who don't know what MVP is, the MVP is an award given by journalists for the best player of the past season. As a small tribute to the performance of the Milwaukee Bucks superstar, we now present Giannis Antetokounmpo Basketball Sneaker.

Before we start with his sneakers, a highlight video of the Greek, so you know why his nickname is Greek Freak.

So now to the sneakers, like many basketball legends before him like Kobe Bryant and Lebron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo is working with Nike rather than Michael Jordan's Jordan Brand. At the beginning of his career, Giannis Antetokounmpo played with regular Nike basketball sneakers, before he got his own signature sneaker from Nike two years ago, the Nike Zoom Freak. Unlike other NBA stars, the name of the sneaker is based on the nickname, rather than his real name, because it is just too long.

In the summer of 2019, after his first MVP season, Nike released the first Zoom Freak, a low top basketball sneaker with which Giannis Antetokounmpo goes bucket hunting from now on. The Greek superstar only played the regular season in the Zoom Freak 1. As before the playoffs of the season in the NBA Bubble starts, Nike presented the Zoom Freak 2. Before we come to the second sneaker, here are the best colorways of the first generation of Giannis Signature Sneakers.

First one of the OG Colorways of the sneaker, then a Colorway based on Giannis Antetokounmpo's homeland Greece. At the end the 'What The' Zoom Freak 1. If you like one of the sneakers, just click on the picture and you can buy it.

Nike Zoom Freak 2

As mentioned before, before the NBA playoffs in the NBA Bubble began, Nike released Giannis Antetokounmpo's second sneaker, the Zoom Freak 2. Just to give you a little info on what is meant by NBA Bubble, due to the corona virus, the NBA has placed all teams in hotels in Disney Land Orlando and isolated them, so that they could play the season there. In the sneakers, Antetokounmpo has not been able to convince so far. As the playoffs were anything but good, for the current back to back MVP of the NBA. Because the Miami Heat beat Giannis Antetokounmpo's Milwaukee Bucks, already in the second round of the playoffs. However Antetokounmpo will also play in the sneakers for next season, so he still has enough time to deliver legendary games in the sneakers.

Even though the basketball shoe hasn't been on the market for long, there are already some very nice colourways.

First of all a very simple Colorway, which is designed only for performance and not so much for design. Don't worry, the other two Colorways are very fancy. The second shoe here is the Zoom Freak 2 Naija, which is meant to remind us of the home country of Antetokounmpo's parents, which is Nigeria. Accordingly, this sneaker was also featured in Naja Pack. All infos about the whole pack, you get via the link. The last sneaker on the blog is a sneaker based on the Milwaukee Bucks jerseys.
