Giannis Antetokounmpo doesn’t like mistakes, especially if it’s regarding the nationality of his fellow NBA players. In his recent Instagram live, Giannis corrected one of his fan who wrongly stated that Luka Doncic is Serbian. Reading through comments on IG live [https://www.instagram.com/giannis_an34/?hl=en], Giannis noticed someone mixing up Doncic’s nationality. In response, the Milwaukee Bucks star confronted them and said, “First of all fellas, Luka is Slovenian. He is not from Serbia. You are dumb”. Giannis’s girlfriend Mariah Riddlesprigger immediately advised him, “Don’t say that.” Luka Doncic, who plays for Dallas Mavericks, has given some tough competition to Giannis for 2018-2019 season MVP. The rivalry between the two stars has been a treat to watch for fans on the court. But besides this rivalry, Giannis has shown that he treats all his fellow NBA players with the respect that they deserve. Luka Doncic has also been playing on top form in his second season at NBA. The Dallas star has been averaging 28.7 points, 8.7 assists, 9.3 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game this season. In the IG live, Giannis also spoke about his favorite rookie from the current season. He named Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant. When asked about his favorite [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-news-giannis-antetokounmpo-reveals-his-favourite-rookie-for-this-season/] NFL team, Bucks star replies with Pittsburgh Steelers. Antetokounmpo also named Tupac, J-Cole and Kendrick Lamar as his favorite rappers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-news-giannis-antetokounmpo-reveals-his-favourite-rookie-for-this-season/] in the game.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Who is Giannis Antetokounmpo?</h2>
Giannis Antetokounmpo or the "Greek Freak" is one of those names that have spurred the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/" target="_self" rel="noopener">NBA</a> circuit in recent times. Born in Greece to Nigerian parents, Antetokounmpo began playing basketball for the youth teams of Filathlitikos, eventually playing for their senior team. Following this, the power forward declared himself eligible for the NBA Draft in 2013, where Antetokounmpo was drafted with the 15th overall pick by the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/milwaukee-bucks/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Milwaukee Bucks</a>, a team he has been playing for since then. He wears the No. 34 jersey.

Over his career, Antetokounmpo has been an NBA All-Star seven times. Giannis also won two successive MVP trophies in 2019 and 2020 to solidify his status as a star in the league. After multiple seasons of being heavily criticized for his failure to win a title, the power forward silenced his critics winning his first championship and Final MVP in 2021. In the 2023-24 season, he is continuing his top form, with the Bucks now a force to be reckoned with in the East.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Giannis Antetokounmpo's early life </h2>
Born in Athens to Nigerian immigrant parents, Charles and Veronica Antetokounmpo, in 1994, Giannis Antetokounmpo grew up in a tough environment, with his family struggling to afford the basics. He started playing basketball around age 7, finding an escape and a passion for the sport. By his mid-teens, he had left school to focus on helping provide for his family, taking odd jobs around the city.

Basketball became more than just a game for the young athlete â€“ it was, perhaps, an opening for a better life. That once far-off dream, however, was soon realized, with Antetokounmpo's first-round selection in the 2013 NBA draft.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Giannis Antetokounmpo's wife and children</h2>
Giannis Antetokounmpo fathers three children with his fiancee Mariah Riddlesprigger: his two sons Liam, 4, and Maverick Shai, 2, and his new-born daughter Eva Brooke.

Drafted 15th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2013 NBA draft, Antetokounmpo was named to the NBA All-Rookie second team in his first season. Over the next few years, he quickly exceeded expectations, growing into a versatile scorer, lockdown defender, and facilitator all in an athletic 6â€™11â€ frame.

He broke out in his third season, averaging 16.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game and earning the Most Improved Player award. In the 2019-20 season, the Greek had another one of his finer campaigns, putting up 27.7 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 5.9 assists to lead the Bucks to their best-ever record in the NBA. (56-17). 

In 2021, Giannis delivered on his promise by spearheading the Bucks to the NBA title and earning a Finals MVP title in the process. He then went on to sign one of the largest contracts in NBA history, a 5-year $228 million extension with the Bucks.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Who is Luka Doncic?</h2>
Luka Doncic has quickly become one of the NBA's most talented young stars since entering the league in 2018. The 24-year-old Slovenian sensation was selected 3rd by Atlanta before being traded to Dallas, where he has shined over his first four seasons.


[caption id="attachment_2596240" align="alignnone" width="7827"]<img class="size-full wp-image-2596240" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2024-01-28T031859Z_401758743_MT1USATODAY22391133_RTRMADP_3_NBA-SACRAMENTO-KINGS-AT-DALLAS-MAVERICKS.jpg" alt="Luka Doncic" width="7827" height="5218" /> Jan 27, 2024; Dallas, Texas, USA; Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (77) reacts to being called for a technical foul against the Sacramento Kings during the second quarter at the American Airlines Center. Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]
He took Spain's ACB League and EuroLeague by storm as a teenager for Real Madrid, winning EuroLeague MVP at 19 before making the jump to the NBA. Doncic has averaged over 25 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists the past three seasons, earning back-to-back All-NBA First Team nods.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Luka Doncic's early life</h2>
Luka Doncic was born and brought up in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Interestingly, Luka first touched a basketball when he was just seven months old as his father, Sasa, was a professional player turned coach. The Slovenian's love for the game increased as he grew older and he continued to improve at a rapid pace as well.

Doncic started playing for his hometown club Union Olimpija and often practiced with kids much older than him because of his advanced skill set. When he was 13, Luka took a huge step in his life and career, when he moved to Madrid, Spain to play for Real Madrid. He graduated high school in Spain and did not go to college.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Luka Doncic's family and personal life</h2>
Luka Doncic was born on February 28, 1999 to Mirjam Poterbin and Sasa Doncic. His parents separated and subsequently divorced in 2018 when the Dallas Mavericks star was nine years old. The custody and legal guardianship of Luka was reportedly granted to his mother.

Mirjam was a model who even participated in the Miss Slovenia pageant in 1993. After her modeling career, she ran a beauty salon with her mother. Sasa DoncicÂ played basketball for 17 years and has multiple accolades to his name. He has also played for the Slovenian national team. After retiring in 2010, SaÅ¡a DonÄiÄ‡ started his coaching career in 2022.

According to multiple reports, Luka has been in a long-term relationship with the Slovenian model Anamaria Goltes. Goltes is also from Ljubljana, Slovenia, and went to the same school as Luka when she was young. However, the couple first met in Croatia during a vacation when they were just 12. Goltes is a model who has a massive following on social media. In 2016, Anamaria moved to the U.S. to pursue her modeling career.

The year also marked the start of a romantic relationship between the two childhood friends. The couple reportedly hit a rough patch in 2018 but are still going strong. In July 2023, Doncic got engaged to his longtime girlfriend Anamaria Goltes, and became a father to a baby girl named Gabriela.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Luka Doncic's Net Worth 2024</h2>
Luka Doncic signed a five-year $215 million contract extension with theÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/dallas-mavericks/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Dallas Mavericks</a>Â in 2021, which earned him over $37 million for the 2022-23 season. The massive contract will fetch him over $40 million for the next season and he will receive an average salary of $43 million. So far, Doncic has reportedly made over $69 million in NBA salaries. Luka has an estimated net worth of $25 million, according to various reports. Furthermore, the combo guard also makes millions every year from his endorsements and partnerships.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Luka Doncic's basketball career</h2>
Luka Doncic grabbed the attention of major teams in Europe after impressing with his displays for local club Union Olimpija. In 2012, Real Madrid came calling and signed Luka for a five-year contract when he was just 13. The young star continued his development while playing for the under-16s and led the team to a Minicopa Endesa win in 2013. For his unreal performances, Doncic was named the MVP of the under-16 championship. He carried on his impressive development with the under-18s in the next few seasons.

During the 2014-15 season, Doncic made his professional debut for Real Madrid at the age of just 16. In the next season, he became a regular for the senior team. The years that followed saw the dominance of Doncic grow in the Spanish league. In the 2017-18 season, he led Real Madrid to a EuroLeague triumph and was named the EuroLeague MVP for his displays. He also helped the team clinch the Liga ACB title and took home the Liga ACB MVP honors as well.

Doncic then declared for the 2018 NBA draft. TheÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/atlanta-hawks/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Atlanta Hawks</a>Â selected him as the 3rd overall pick and then traded him on the same day for Trae Young who was drafted as the 5th pick by the Dallas Mavericks. Doncic hit the ground running for the Mavs and won the Rookie of the Year award, averaging 21.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 6 assists per game. He astonished everyone with his maturity on the hardwood and the ability to control the pace of the game despite being very young. Doncic made his first-ever NBA All-Star appearance in his sophomore year. He has made the team for four straight years ever since.

Doncic led the Mavs to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since the 2010-11 season. However, he could not help the team past the eventual champions the Golden State Warriors. Given the teams' heroics in the playoffs last season, there were huge expectations from Luka and the Mavericks for the 2022-23 season. Doncic started the season great and was in the MVP race for most of the campaign. However, the team struggled massively in the concluding stages of the season and failed to make it to the playoffs eventually.

In January 2023, DonÄiÄ‡ was awarded the Western Conference Player of the Month award for his play during December, the third of his career. He was also named a Western Conference starter for the 2023 NBA All-Star Game, marking his fourth consecutive selection. During a game in March, Kyrie Irving scored 40 points while his teammate, Luka DonÄiÄ‡, scored 42 points. It was the first time in Dallas franchise history that two players scored 40 points in the same game.Â 

In March, he surpassed Mark Aguirreâ€™s previous record for the most 30-point games in a season in Mavericks history. Following this, in October, DonÄiÄ‡ became the first player in Mavericks history to put up a 30-point triple-double in a season-opening game. On the 25th of December 2023, DonÄiÄ‡ became the sixth player to reach 10,000 career regular-season points before turning 25, tied Bob McAdoo for reaching 10,000 points in the 7th-fewest games in NBA history, and became the quickest to 10,000 points among active players with 358 games. This is the fastest since Michael Jordan. He also tied for 3rd-most points for Christmas Day games, behind Bernard King and Wilt Chamberlain.

Luka Doncic

&nbsp; Who is Luka Doncic? Luka Doncic has quickly become one of the NBA&#8217;s most talented young stars since entering the league in 2018. The 24-year-old Slovenian sensation was selected 3rd by Atlanta before being traded to Dallas, where he has shined over his first four seasons. Jan 27, 2024; Dallas, Texas, USA; Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (77) reacts to being called for a technical foul against the Sacramento Kings during the second quarter at the American Airlines Center. Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports He took Spain&#8217;s ACB League and EuroLeague by storm as a teenager for Real Madrid, winning EuroLeague MVP at 19 before making the jump to the NBA. Doncic has averaged over 25 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists the past three seasons, earning back-to-back All-NBA First Team nods. Luka Doncic&#8217;s early life Luka Doncic was born and brought up in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Interestingly, Luka first touched a basketball when he was just seven months old as his father, Sasa, was a professional player turned coach. The Slovenian&#8217;s love for the game increased as he grew older and he continued to improve at a rapid pace as well. Doncic started playing for his hometown club Union Olimpija and often practiced with kids much older than him because of his advanced skill set. When he was 13, Luka took a huge step in his life and career, when he moved to Madrid, Spain to play for Real Madrid. He graduated high school in Spain and did not go to college. Luka Doncic&#8217;s family and personal life Luka Doncic was born on February 28, 1999 to Mirjam Poterbin and Sasa Doncic. His parents separated and subsequently divorced in 2018 when the Dallas Mavericks star was nine years old. The custody and legal guardianship of Luka was reportedly granted to his mother. Mirjam was a model who even participated in the Miss Slovenia pageant in 1993. After her modeling career, she ran a beauty salon with her mother. Sasa DoncicÂ played basketball for 17 years and has multiple accolades to his name. He has also played for the Slovenian national team. After retiring in 2010, SaÅ¡a DonÄiÄ‡ started his coaching career in 2022.  USA Today via Reuters According to multiple reports, Luka has been in a long-term relationship with the Slovenian model Anamaria Goltes. Goltes is also from Ljubljana, Slovenia, and went to the same school as Luka when she was young. However, the couple first met in Croatia during a vacation when they were just 12. Goltes is a model who has a massive following on social media. In 2016, Anamaria moved to the U.S. to pursue her modeling career. The year also marked the start of a romantic relationship between the two childhood friends. The couple reportedly hit a rough patch in 2018 but are still going strong. In July 2023, Doncic got engaged to his longtime girlfriend Anamaria Goltes, and became a father to a baby girl named Gabriela. Luka Doncic&#8217;s Net Worth 2024 Luka Doncic signed a five-year $215 million contract extension with theÂ Dallas MavericksÂ in 2021, which earned him over $37 million for the 2022-23 season. The massive contract will fetch him over $40 million for the next season and he will receive an average salary of $43 million. So far, Doncic has reportedly made over $69 million in NBA salaries.

However, he will have to get through the powerhouse teams in the West like the Warriors, Clippers, Grizzlies, and Suns to bring a title to Dallas. &nbsp; Luka Doncic&#8217;s social media accounts  Instagram @lukadoncic  Twitter @luka7doncic  Facebook @LukaDoncic  &nbsp;  Full Name Luka Doncic  Popular Name Luka Doncic  Birth Date 28 February, 1999  Birth Place Ljubljana, Slovenia  Age 24  Height 6&#8217;7&#8243; (2.01 m)  Weight 230 lbs (104 kg)  Parents Sasa Doncic and Mirjam Poterbin  Nationality Slovenian  Ethnicity White  Net Worth $25 million  Salary $37 million  Spouse Anamaria Goltes  Relationship/Marital Status In a relationship  Profession Basketball player  Team Dallas Mavericks

<h2>Inception: The Reindeer throws the league off-balance</h2>
Milwaukee Bucks is a franchise that operates from the city of Milwaukee, which is in the state of Wisconsin. Its home floor is the Fiserv Forum which opened in 2018 via public funding. It is a part of the Central Division that also features the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Chicago Bulls, the Indiana Pacers, and the Detroit Pistons. The franchise has been operational since 1968 and played its first NBA game in October of that year. Before the following season, because of a grueling 27-55 record, they earned the right to the first pick following a coin flip. 

On the stake was Lew Alcindor(now known as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar), a transcendental talent who was deemed way too good for the NCAA. After winning the coin flip, the budding ABA’s New York Nets challenged them in a bidding war to bring Alcindor. But, the Bucks succeeded in bringing him into the fold. And just in his second year and the franchise’s third season, they claimed their first NBA Championship. Therefore, Milwaukee Bucks is the first expansion franchise that win a title within the first three years of its existence. Since then, it has won one more title. It happened in 2021, when Giannis Antetokounmpo, Brook Lopez, Jrue Holiday, and Khris Middleton made one of the most brilliant runs in the history of the game. They beat the Suns in six games during the championship round.
