Everyone in Milwaukee knew his character halfway through his rookie year when he took a cab to Western Union and wired literally all of his money home to his family in Greece forgetting to leave himself enough money to get a cab ride to the stadium for the game that day. So, started running and was a mile or so down the sidewalk towards the stadium when a season ticket holder recognized him and gave him a ride the rest of the way. Season ticket holder also told a reporter I guess, or we would’ve never found out about this. Anyway, that one story tells you pretty much all you need to know about his character and loyalty.
I’m not sure why, but this reminds me of seeing Jonas Valanciunas when he played for the Raptors. I remember a picture going around of him showing up to nationals practice in a beat up 80s hatchback.
Damn Milwaukee is so lucky to have him
Shit man after this answer I feel like I need to get my ass to Milwaukee.
