Yes, a sibling group with arguably the best player in the league only ranks third on this list. That’s not a result of Giannis’ play, naturally.

Giannis is one of the three best players in the NBA and is on course to be one of the greatest to ever play the game. The Greek Freak has one of the most dominant all-around games in the sport and helped guide the Bucks to their first championship in a half-century.

It’s been more of the same this season from the superstar. He’s a leading candidate for MVP honors once again, averaging a ho-hum 29.9 points and 11.8 rebounds per game for the team with the league’s second-best record. He has been battling knee soreness, but that has done little to limit his importance.

Thanasis is also on the Bucks, but his contributions are largely limited to getting hyped on the bench when his younger brother throws down a monster slam dunk. Last year, his third in Milwaukee, Thanasis averaged 3.6 points per game off the bench. He’s never averaged even 10 minutes per game for a season.

Kostas has a ring from his brief time with the Los Angeles Lakers, but the 24-year-old hasn’t broken through in the league yet. He’s currently on a two-way contract with the Chicago Bulls and hasn’t made it into an NBA game this season.

Unbelievably, there’s a fourth brother, Alex, who was named to the opening roster for the G League’s Wisconsin Herd. He hasn’t made the leap to the NBA yet, but he has plenty of time and could help the Antetokoumpos prove once and for all that they’re the cream of the crop.
