Giannis Antetokounmpo reveals he was surprised when Kris Jenner didn't call him to join The Kardashians show.
Giannis Antetokounmpo is ready to face another huge 2022-23 NBA season, where the Milwaukee Bucks will try to get their crown back after losing to the Boston Celtics in the second round of the 2022 playoffs. The Greek Freak couldn't dismantle the Celtics' defense, and the absence of Khris Middleton hurt their chances to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.
After finishing his campaign in the 2022 EuroBasket, Giannis is ready to face another challenge, trying to get revenge. Meanwhile, he's trying to kill some time before the new season begins, and he has interesting plans in mind.
Earlier this week, Giannis was recorded making his pitch to become part of 'The Kardashians' show, kneeling down and talking to a wax figure of Kris Jenner.
“Maybe you put me on the show,” Giannis suggested. “I can be one of the guys and bring value to the show. It can be me, Kanye, Travis Scott. I feel like I’m part of the family. I watch you guys every day. I would love to be on the show. What do you think, Kris?”

During the Milwaukee Bucks media day, Giannis was asked about his goals for this upcoming season. While talking about the prospect of winning another MVP, Giannis asked teammate Serge Ibaka if he thought the Greek Freak could win a third MVP award. Ibaka didn't miss his chance and asked Giannis if Kris Jenner had reached out to him.
"I was very surprised, she didn't [call me back]," Giannis said. "I wanted to be a part of the family. Yes, I watched the show so much with my girlfriend, I wanted to be a part of the family somehow, someway. Maybe be the chef, maybe the driver, security guard, anything..."
Giannis finished that interaction by answering that if he wins another MVP, it would be nice, but he's focused on getting another championship with the Bucks. Last season, they looked very solid entering the playoffs, but Middleton's injury ruined their plans. This upcoming season, more teams are expected to compete to come out of the East, but you should never sleep on these Bucks, as they already know what it takes to win it all.
