Thanasis Antetokounmpo Re-Signs with Bucks After Achilles Injury Layoff

Posted : 02 September 2025

Forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo is set to continue his NBA journey with the Milwaukee Bucks after signing a new one-year contract, the team announced on Sunday. The deal, worth $2.9 million according to ESPN’s Shams Charania, ensures that Thanasis will remain alongside his brother, two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo.

 

The 33-year-old missed the entire 2024–25 season due to a torn Achilles tendon but has since returned to competitive action, currently representing Greece at EuroBasket. His last NBA appearance came in the 2023–24 campaign, where he played sparingly in 34 games off the bench, averaging under one point per contest.

 

Since joining Milwaukee in 2019, Thanasis has carved out a role as a depth option and locker-room presence. Over his NBA career, he has logged 198 regular-season games with averages of 2.4 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 7.7 minutes per outing.

 

The Bucks’ decision to bring him back coincides with ongoing discussions about the long-term future of Giannis, who remains the centerpiece of the franchise. The 12-year veteran posted stellar numbers last season, averaging 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists.

 

Thanasis’s return strengthens the Bucks’ depth while also keeping the Antetokounmpo brothers united in Milwaukee as the team looks ahead to another push for NBA contention.
