Giannis is a top NBA player, the two Lakers legends he looks up to for inspiration revealed

Being the NBA franchise that the LA Lakers are, and having on their history some of the greatest players of all time, isn't a surprise that other superstars of the league get inspiration from some of the purple and gold legends, this is the case of the "Greek Freak," Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Giannis spoke on how great has been for him growing up looking up to LeBron James just like most grew up watching Michael Jordan, for Antetokounmpo, LeBron was it for him, and now he thinks is in the same sentence as LeBron, currently in the league.

“Guys… 7 years ago I was looking up to LeBron… and I’d be like that’s LeBron, how Jordan was for everyone? For me, that was LeBron” Said recently Giannis.

Giannis also spoke on the respect & admiration of LeBron on & off the court as well as Vanessa & Kobe Bryant. Kobe and LeBron are without a doubt some of the greatest players in the league and will continue to inspire generations to come in Basketball.

LeBron James continues playing after 20 years in the league

King James is unstoppable as he is entering his year 21 in the league and has been dominating ever since he entered the NBA. James has been and continues to be the face of the league and today could be playing in the second preseason game for the Lakers ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.
