MVP candidate Giannis Antetokounmpo once again showed that he is a fan-friendly superstar. After the game, when he visibly looked tired after logging 35 minutes, he still took the time to meet some of his fans who watched the game at the famous arena. Among the lucky ones were Eraklis Labrakis, Victoria Georgelos, and Eva Georgelos, who are all from the Chicago suburbs but are of Greek heritage.
