There’s just no disputing the fact that Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the best players in the NBA today. In fact, more than a few folks will argue that the Greek Freak is one of the greatest to ever pick up a basketball — ever.
General managers across the NBA clearly agree with this notion.
Milwaukee Bucks Star Giannis Antetokounmpo Is Top NBA Power Forward
The NBA has released the results of the annual GM survey and unsurprisingly, Giannis’ name popped up in several categories. One of them was the vote for the best power forward in the league. Antetokounmpo reigned supreme and it wasn’t even close.
Only two players got voted in this particular category and it’s Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant who has to settle for second fiddle behind Giannis. You have to note, however, that KD only got 3% of the GM votes. Nope, there are no typos there. 97% of execs really believe that Antetokounmpo is the best power forward in the NBA. Can you blame them?
More Accolades for Antetokounmpo
Apart from being the top PF in the game today, NBA GMs also believe that Antetokounmpo is the best defensive player as well as the most versatile defender in the league.
Giannis also got votes for the MVP title (second behind Nikola Jokic), the player GMs would want to start their franchise with (third behind Jokic and Victor Wembanyama), as well as the player who forces the most coaching adjustments from the opposition (third behind Stephen Curry and Jokic).
