Giannis Antetokounmpo's Serious Postgame Press Conference in Full Halloween Costume Was Too Good

Screengrab via NBA



Giannis Antetokounmpo was already one of the NBA’s most lovable superstars. But his performance Monday night giving his postgame press conference in a Hulk costume may have won over anyone who wasn’t already a big Giannis fan.

The Greek Freak was fully decked out for the occasion after the Bucks’ win over the Heat, rocking a mask and costume for the occasion as he answered reporters’ questions. He even broke out a Hulk voice as he opened the press conference, telling reporters “Don’t be scared” to the laughs of many in the room.

Antetokounmpo later explained he was in the costume in order to be able to celebrate Halloween with his kids, given the team has to head to Toronto on Wednesday.

“I’m doing this for my kids,” Antetokounmpo said.

Giannis also did answer plenty of basketball-related questions throughout the presser, which produced some hilarious moments.

It was an awesome, authentic moment from one of the league’s stars, and a reminder of NBA players being humans with lives outside of basketball. Fans loved it.
