The Antetokounmpo family was denied a US visa twice. They were just one denial away from never making it. Giannis was scared. He loves his family and he wouldn’t want to be without them.
He decided that if his family got denied entry, he would leave the NBA. Fortunately, for the NBA, Antetokounmpo’s agent made sure the visa got approved.
