Giannis Antetokounmpo and brothers make unprecedented history after recent signing image

In the history of the NBA and other sports, we have seen some unique situations with family members playing for the same team.

LeBron James playing with his son Bronny was the most recent headline that took the world by storm, but Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks have just made history of their own.

What unique historic feat did the Antetokounmpo brothers achieve?

Giannis was drafted to the Bucks back in 2013, and since then has become an NBA champion, multi-time MVP, among many other feats.

He's done it with his brother, Thanasis, who has been on the Bucks since the 2019-20 season.

It was cool enough to see two brothers getting to play for the same city, but that has now been taken to a whole new level, after news broke on Monday morning about a signing Milwaukee made.

Shams Charania of ESPN reported that the Bucks had signed another of Giannis' brothers, Alex Antetokounmpo.

Alex, 24, will get his first shot in the league after signing a two-way deal with the Bucks.

Alex went undrafted in 2021 and has since played overseas and with a couple of NBA G-League teams.

He did play for Milwaukee's G-League team a few years ago, but this will be the first time all three players will have active contracts with the Bucks organization (Shams Charania).

Time will tell if we ever see them all take the court together to make more history, but for now, they are all under contract with the organization that Giannis has flourished with.
