Being on top of the NBA for long periods of time takes a lot of physical commitment from the athletes. While injuries are unavoidable in any sport, elite fitness and proper diets with modern recovery equipment help players become the best in what they do. One such player who is immensely committed to fitness and discipline is Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Greek Freak has played more than sixty games in every season since his debut in 2013-2014. Moreover, his numbers have improved at a steady pace with each coming year. Meanwhile, the health concerns of a fitness-conscious Giannis Antetokounmpo once triggered a former NBA champion when the Milwaukee Bucks star made an appearance on his cooking talk show.

Back in November 2022, Giannis Antetokounmpo made an appearance on the 2019 NBA champ Serge Ibaka’s cooking show, “How Hungry Are You?”. The seven-time All-Star ended up making a decision before the show that riled up Ibaka, who is known for treating his guests to authentic Congolese food. Ibaka recently uploaded the behind-the-scenes video of the November episode starring Giannis Antetokounmpo. During the show, Ibaka had prepared fufu, beef, and peanut butter sauce for his Bucks teammate. However, Giannis Antetokounmpo ended up bringing his own food on the show which left Ibaka irritated.

Giannis Antetokounmpo once left Ibaka extremely frustrated

In a recently uploaded BTS video on Serge Ibaka YouTube page, Giannis Antetokounmpo could be seen entering the set of his Bucks teammate’s show with a bowl in his hand. As he entered the house, the 2021 NBA champ could be seen checking out the place before asking about the location of the kitchen. However, Ibaka ended up exploding at Giannis when he saw the Bucks star eating food from a bowl. Ibaka said, “Wait, wait! How can you eat?” In response, Giannis Antetokounmpo said, “I’m a taste. I’m not going to eat.”

The response from the 2021 Finals MVP frustrated Ibaka even more. The former Toronto Raptors star burst out, “Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! Do you know how long it took me to cook this food? And you come to my show with your own food?” Giannis gave a cheeky reply by saying ‘yes’. Meanwhile, an exasperated Ibaka said, “No that’s not gonna happen. I don’t like that s**t.” In an attempt to pacify the Bucks player, Giannis revealed, “I watched the show. I watched the show you do. I came prepared.”
