I never went to college.

I can be a little cocky.

I just try to stay grounded.

I'm really scared of failing.

I like hip-hop and rock music.

It's my nature to be fearless.

I wanted to be a soccer player.

You never know how life turns out.

I'm loyal to the people I work with.

I love how quiet and calm Milwaukee is.

I know that guys can't guard me one-on-one.

Me and my mother, we both love Eddie Murphy.

I want to be an all-around basketball player.

You can just never forget where you came from.

Milwaukee is a small-market team, but I love it.

I usually feel that I prefer to hide from people.

It's good to know that your coach cares about you.

Gregg Popovich is among the greatest coaches ever.

Sometimes I'm wide open, I've just got to shoot it.

Leading your family is a lot tougher than basketball.

I see myself as a student. Trying to learn everything.

I like Rice Krispie treats. I like Skittles and Snickers.

My favorite movie is 'Coming to America' by Eddie Murphy.

If I can't score, I do whatever I can to support my teammates.

Before I leave this earth, I'm going to help people have a better future.

I think for a guy like me, low-profile guy, it's better being in Milwaukee.

It starts with my family. That drives me every day, just seeing them smiling.

My dad was a soccer player. He didn't know anything about basketball - nothing.

The first time I played basketball was with my dad and my older brother Thanasis.

I hope to play in the NBA for many seasons, establish my position, and win titles.

I'm just trying to be the best basketball player I can be, you know, move the ball.

Even if I'll be an All Star or Rookie of The Year, I will always be humble Giannis.

I like living in a smaller place, but I like being in big cities, too, like Athens.

When LeBron came into the league, I was 9 years old. So I grew up watching him play.

I've just got to keep working hard, try to get my team better. That's a goal of mine.

I am honored to be the first international player featured on the cover of 'NBA 2K19.'

Persistent in life? I think, yes, I am. I'm going to do something until I get it right.

I think my rookie, I was just having fun. I was 18, and I was living the American dream.

I always had to be there for my family. I think that helped me a lot to adjust to the NBA.

I'm a guy who doesn't really care about glamour and big markets; I like to be home all day.

I think my jump shot could get a lot, lot better. I could become a really big threat out there.

I cannot take 30 jumpers a game. Got to have a balance. You've got to get your teammates involved.

Of course, I know by growing older, I'm going to become stronger, smarter, and know the game better.

I love Milwaukee! I'm going to be in Milwaukee 20 years! I'll be here so long, they'll be sick of me!

LeBron James is one of the best players in the league - and one of the best players to ever play the game.

I can see the love from people in Milwaukee. I can see that the city wants me to be there for a long time.

Dirk Nowitzki is the best European player, for me, that's ever played the game. He's an unbelievable talent.

I have worked hard to earn recognition in the NBA, and being on the cover of 'NBA 2K19' is a dream come true.

I know I can get to the basket whenever I want, but I've got to be able to create some plays, like easy plays.

I like to score when I can, but if I can't do that, I like to do the other things - defense, blocking, rebounding.
