Perhaps he was bringing some of the old American Thanksgiving traditions back to his homeland. Greeceor maybe he was just grateful to the neighborhood that raised him.
Away from the cameras and spotlight, with no reporters or journalists in sight – in fact, not even a post on his social media… Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo returned to the tough neighborhood of his upbringing to share a little love.
Giannis and his family visited a local supermarket and literally emptied almost every shelf, according to mesmerized employees who took to their own social media accounts to share the news of their star experience.
In fact, the only way the world knows what happened the other night in Sepolia in central Athens is because the people who received food from Giannis Antetokounmpo posted articles about it, as did the shocked customers inside the store who saw the family stacking crates and crates. at a time in more than a dozen shopping carts.
The entire incident was pieced together from random social media posts.

After their shopping trip, first mentioned in a message from grocery store employees, Giannis, his brothers and his mother parked in front of the church of Agios Meletios in Sepolia and began handing out food – incredibly large quantities, according to Alexia Koziona, a neighborhood kindergarten teacher, who shared a selfie on her Facebook page.
The family spent about an hour handing out everything from toothpaste and milk to bags of sugar and other groceries to people eager to receive a surprise gift.
