Giannis Antetokounmpo gave a hilarious monolog on staying humble. The "Greek Freak" never shies away from admitting that he isn't one of the best perimeter shooters. In his monolog during practice, Antetokounmpo highlighted that god gave him almost everything but had to take away his 3-point shooting to keep him humble.
Here's what Giannis said:
"Cannot be handsome, beautiful kids, beautiful wife, great family, great teammates, great coaching staff. Handsome. Athletic. I cannot have everything in life. I cannot make threes too.
"God had to keep me humble. God said, basically, cannot make threes. Can't shoot. Stay humble my guy. Dominate in the paint, rebound, dunking on people, euro steps. I had to stay humble somehow."
