Giannis Antetokounmpo‘s 38 points couldn’t save the Milwaukee Bucks from losing at their home arena. The Fiserv Forum bore witness to the Bucks’ defeat 133-122 to the Chicago Bulls. But, what stole the show wasn’t just the on-court action but what happened later. It looks like the ‘Greek Freak’ is all set for Halloween already! The power forward walked into the post-game presser in a rather impressive look and all credits should go to his wife and children.

Donning a Mr. Potato Head costume, Giannis Antetokounmpo stunned everyone. Despite a home opener loss, the 29-year-old’s sweet gesture for his kids stole all the spotlight. Giannis said, “You don’t have no say in things” when asked about his get-up once you get married. The 29-year-old power forward married his longtime partner Mariah Riddlesprigger over the summer break in Greece. The 2x MVP also shared that he has a schedule set out for him at the start of the day. Friday’s included practice, spending time with his three kids, napping, and changing into costume.

“It doesn’t matter what you feel. Win or lose, wear that costume,” Giannis Antetokounmpo added. “Because at the end of the day, you’re a father after a basketball player. So this is why I choose this costume because I’m a father first.” While the Greek Freak styled his Mr. Potato Head look, his children donned costumes as other “Toy Story” characters in the arena.

Last year, the Bucks star, wore an Incredible Hulk mask and hands to the Fiserv Forum on Halloween eve. And well, the ritual seems to continue this year as well. Meanwhile, the fans are going “aww” over Papa Antetokounmpo’s gesture. And guess what? Unique and heartfelt comments fill the Greek star’s comment section. So, let’s dig in!

“Yessir 🔥Papa Giannis,” one of Antetokounmpo’s fans commented. Well, fatherhood undoubtedly suits the 29-year-old just perfectly. How he explains the reason for putting on his outfit is a testament to the unconditional love he has for his three kiddos. Meanwhile, we cannot miss out on Giannis’ wife, Mariah Riddlesprigger who most definitely forced (read: encouraged) the hooper to set the tone for Halloween.

Another ardent supporter wrote: “He not only setting the standard on court but the standard on home as well.” Oh well, by dressing as Mr. Potato Head, Giannis proves he’s a dedicated athlete and a devoted family man. His playful look shows his commitment to family time. He balances intense games with fun, unforgettable moments at home.

“💯… Gotta do what the wife says!” a fan noted. Giannis Antetokounmpo is surely doing a great job in this factor. The one-time NBA champ is listening to his wife and following her lead in family matters. It shows his respect and playful humor about marriage dynamics. Not just that, the Greek Freak’s clear priorities are also out before the world and his only motto is “family first.” Somewhat reminds us of the Fast and Furious series, what about you?

Meanwhile, someone wrote: “Family over everything.” For Giannis Antetokounmpo, family is indeed everything. This means making his loved ones his top priority, even amid a busy NBA career. Whether dressing up as Mr. Potato Head or spending time with his kids at the arena, Giannis shows that family moments matter most to him, emphasizing his commitment to those closest to him over fame or career.

“Guy is mamba mentality on the court and off the court he’s Mickey Mouse. Wild.” This might be one of the most unique comments under the power forward’s post. Well, you cannot deny the fact this fan has slammed us with. Giannis Antetokounmpo’s style of playing- his pace, power, and size often gets compared to none other than Kobe Bryant. Hence the “mamba” reference. However, man’s truly a ‘softie’ off the court, and from time and time again we get to witness the family man behind the lethal hooper.

So, while the Milwaukee Bucks lost against the Bulls, Antetokounmpo’s insane 38-point game put the team on a decent pedestal. But, as we said before, his Mr.Potato Head outfit became the highlight of the day. A true family guy and the best dad to his kids, Giannis Antetokounmpo stood out before the crowd for his kind gesture toward his loved ones.
