Giannis Antetokounmpo makes bold Kobe Bryant claim

Giannis Antetokounmpo has compared himself to NBA legends Shaquille O’Neal, Magic Johnson, Kevin Garnett, and Kobe Bryant in a recent interview. The Milwaukee Bucks' superstar sat down with GQ and he had some very interesting things to say during the interview. Giannis was asked to name past players that he can most compare himself to. After giving the question some thought, the Greek Freak named four NBA legends: Shaquille O’Neal, Magic Johnson, Kevin Garnett, and Kobe Bryant.

"I don’t know,” Giannis started (h/t Lee Tran of Fadeaway World).   "I’d say a little bit of Shaq. The dominance there, getting in the paint. A little bit of Magic. Being able to come down the court, go coast to coast and find teammates, put teammates in the right spot.   "A little bit of KG, having that edge, that toughness, that mental toughness that nothing can break you. You do whatever it takes.   "A little bit of Kobe, work ethic. I try to take a little bit of every player. To compare myself with one player, I don’t really know. It’s a great question.”
