After becoming a dominant player in the NBA, Giannis Antetokounmpo is now attempting to have a similar level of success in business.

The U.S. Sun has uncovered that the two-time MVP is diversifying his already excellent investing portfolio with the millions of dollars the Milwaukee Bucks pay him.

Giannis has been in advertisements for some of the largest US companies, such as Google and T-Mobile.

The 28-year-old Antetokounmpo, who last month inked a three-year, $177.1 million maximum contract with the Bucks, has already profited from his widespread recognition and notoriety.

In an attempt to take on Apple in the smartphone market, Google has enlisted the 6-foot-11 forward as the face of its new Pixel phones.

Along with working with Nike on his own shoe line, Zoom Freak, the Greek celebrity has starred in commercials for T-Mobile, JBL, and Breitling, among other well-known brands.

Giannis, along with his brothers Thanasis, Kostas, and Alex, has started several companies that are managed by the recently founded Ante, Inc. company.

Among other sports, the Antetokounmpo brothers are owners of franchises in Major League Baseball (MLB) and Major League Soccer (MLS).

They recently bought equity in the Canadian candies company Candy Funhouse and opened the AntetokounBros clothing boutique at Milwaukee’s Trade Hotel.

Ante, Inc. recently acquired a share in Hellenic Wineries, a holding company that owns a significant Greek wine manufacturer, BOUTARI Wineries, extending Giannis’ corporate empire across the Atlantic.

The seven-time NBA All-Star is still expanding his resume.

According to The U.S. Sun, Antetokounmpo has been considering assets around Europe, including real estate, farming, and additional forays into the wine business.

According to a source, “we know that Antetokounmpo’s family is looking for somewhere quiet, where they can spend their holidays and free time not being surrounded by a lot of people and in privacy. Scouting of some houses and properties has been done.”

According to the source, Giannis was drawn to a number of properties, including opulent mansions in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, and the Algarve region.

Others were in Italy, in Lake Como on the outskirts of Milan, and in Spain, in the Andalusia region, the city of Marbella, and the Baleares islands.

The U.S. Sun examined the postings and found that the identified mansions ranged in price from $2.2 million to $7.7 million.

According to a second source, Antetokounmpo has also looked at real estate in his home country of Greece, where he already has a home on the island of Mykonos.

The source further stated that the Bucks star has been counselled to think about buying an island in the Cyclades or Aegean, in addition to making more investments in Mykonos, Athens, or other parts of the nation.

“Purchasing an island for someone such as him could be highly intriguing, given his preference for seclusion and not being overly crowded when on vacation,” the insider said.

“Owning an island allows you to live in seclusion from the outside world, which is ideal for individuals who prefer to avoid being surrounded by large crowds.”

According to a third source, Antetokounmpo’s group has also expressed interest in organic farming and the food sector as a whole.

According to the source, in response, the NBA forward’s advisors were given the chance to make investments in wines in the Italian areas of Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany.

Listings of farms and estates in southern Europe that produce and market products like cheese, olive oil, fruits, and vegetables were also sent to them.

The insider stated, “We tried to focus on things that are known for him — Greek products like cheese or olive fields — as those are always going to be profitable businesses. He is an athlete and someone who is very aware of healthy food and produces.”

“But above all, companies that prioritise protecting the environment and the land by being organic and not using pesticides.”

In 2013, the Bucks used the fifteenth overall pick to choose Antetokounmpo.

He made it to the NBA despite having a poor upbringing; before taking up basketball, he and his siblings helped his mother sell phoney handbags and sunglasses on the streets of Athens.

After playing basketball for Filathlitikos in the Greek third division, Giannis eventually caught the interest of most NBA teams.

He shared the NBA title with Thanasis and the Bucks in 2021.

During the Orlando bubble the previous year, Kostas won his first championship ring as an Antetokounmpo brother with the Los Angeles Lakers.

Antetokounmpo’s business ventures saw him launch his own shoe line, the Zoom Freak, in partnership with Nike
