Video: “Who the hell is Max? My name is Giannis” - Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo cooks up another dad joke
Giannis Antetokounmpo never misses an opportunity to remind fans that he is one of the funniest players in the NBA. Antetokounmpo, who frequently comes up with dad jokes and puns, recently posted a video of one of his latest jokes.
"Hey guys, I'm not gonna lie, first time I heard that my wife was cheating on me was, it was kinda like a hard pill to swallow. She texts me back, she was like, 'I'll be back in 15-20 minutes max,' and I was like, 'who the hell is Max? My name is Giannis!"
Who the heck is Max!? https://t.co/ZrutcPXv31
The two-time MVP has increased the frequency of his dad jokes since winning his first title with the Bucks. He often sent reporters into fits of laughter with dad jokes during press conferences last season.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks remain legitimate title contenders following smart offseason moves
The Milwaukee Bucks failed in their title defense last season. Khris Middleton's absence contributed to their second-round loss to eventual Eastern Conference champions the Boston Celtics.
After both dropping 44+ in Game 6, Giannis and Jayson Tatum are in the midst of a Game 7 duel at the half!

HALFTIME
Jayson Tatum: 17 PTS (4/4 3PM)
Giannis Antetokounmpo: 17 PTS, 12 REB, 7 AST https://t.co/bn174aKDKg
Milwaukee has managed to retain the majority of its rotation players and will fancy its chances of making a run for the title next season.
Jon Horst totally nailed it addressing the criticism of the Bucks "running it back."
"If someone is going to characterize this offseason as just running it back, I would say I don’t agree with you. But if that’s how you want to look at it, I’d say, OK, we’re pretty damn good." twitter.com/eric_nehm/stat…
They have added veteran Joe Ingles to bolster their side, while retaining Wesley Matthews, Bobby Portis, Serge Ibaka, and Jevon Carter.
With perennial MVP candidate Antetokounmpo, a healthy Khris Middleton and the ever-reliable Jrue Holiday, the Bucks will be hoping to make it to the Finals.
It will be a tough road for them, though. The Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers have improved their respective rosters significantly. The Brooklyn Nets could also threaten if they retain Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. The Miami Heat aren't going anywhere, either.
