Scoring 21,000 career points and having the tribute video on the screen. Just what do those moments mean to you? Giannis Antetokounmpo: “I think when I was younger and a couple years ago, I'm like, "Yeah, you know, it's another day at the office. Let me just do my job, go back home." As you’re getting older, you start appreciating those moments. You don't take it for granted. Coach came in and he told me that there's only like 11 or 12 players who ever scored 21,000 points with one team. And through the history of the game, and you're like ‘wow’. Being a a kid from Greece from Sepolia where I grew up in a small neighborhood, not a lot of let's say great things happen there or come out of there to be able to be in the stage and 13 years later to score 21,000 points I'm very appreciative. I've had great support system by myself, my family, God by my side that they've guide me through my whole journey and happy. I have a lot of things a lot of chapters that I want to keep on like closing moving forward so I just got to stay locked in job is not done.“
