After all said done. No matter how much he identifies as Nigerian, he still plays for the Greek national basketball team and not Dtigers. |

LukasPodolski: Not sure why you tagged me Oga. I am not unpatrotic. I just do not know how to pretend to myself The NBA and basketball, who which he’s been praised and known, recognises him as Greek. He has a Greek passport. He does NOT have a Nigerian passport. Believe me, if they recognised him as Nigerian, I would be up in arms praising him as Nigerian. But he is Greek. Not sure why we want to pretend otherwise. 1 Like |

Seun360:born to a Yoruba father and Igbo mother. his full name is Giannis Shina Ugo Adetokunbo (antetokounmpo) does that mean Ifeanyi Adeleke (Davido's kid) is not Yoruba |

Jaqenhghar: I tire. And they want to demonise every Nigerian that doesnt want to engage in their pretentious charade. He is Greek. Stop pretending to yourselves, dear Nigerians. Look inwards and develop your own talent. Nigerians cant maintain the Abuja National Stadium that is overgrown with weeds so that local talents can compete. The day one talented 7 year old manages to escape Nigeria and is groomed and trained in Spain in basketball, foolish Nigerians will start saying he is "a Nigerian" Silly, lazy bunch. |

Seun360: Giannis 'Sina Ugo Adetokunbo [born in Greece in 1994, the same play-off season my main man Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon won the NBA MVP award]. Giannis Yoruba father and Ibo-speaking mother. Giannis has a Yoruba father so he is Yoruba and Giannis never denied his links to Nigeria AND he has a Nigerian passport as well! The oldest of Giannis' brothers was BORN in Lagos State and when the Adetokunbo family migrated to Greece in the early 1990s before Giannis was born, the first born was left behind in Lagos to be taken care of by his grandparents. Giannis is even being mentored by [b]Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon [/b]who is from Lagos State originally.

Compact b-ball frameworks are getting mainstream nowadays as they are advantageous. You should simply to amass the framework and begin hurling a few shots. In any case, it is profoundly essential to adhere to the producer's guidelines cautiously. On the off chance that you don't fill the base appropriately, the framework can spill and get harmed. In this way, fill the base cautiously to keep away from extreme wounds. basketball picker team |
