He kind of reminds me of Tim Duncan a bit,who was pretty quiet & humble off the court. I read somewhere that he meets up with a section of Greek fans after every home and away games which has to be pretty cool for those fans. Between how hard he works on the court and his demeanor off of it its hard to not root for this kid.

A couple of fans give a pair of custom Kobe's to Giannis as a gift and in return he gives them the jacket off his back.

We have stupid seats for all the Knicks and Nets games. I wanted the Bucks tickets to see him up close. He is a freak. I got to do some small talk with him. Nice kid
