Giannis Antetokounmpo is one win away from his first NBA championship. Luka Doncic was just named the cover athlete for NBA 2K22. Who is the bigger international star?
Giannis is having a historic NBA Finals, and seems like a lock to win Finals MVP if the Bucks can close out the Suns. He already has two regular season MVPs to his name and also proudly represents two different heritages, being born and raised in Greece in a Nigerian family.
Luka is one of the NBA's brightest young stars, establishing himself as an MVP candidate at just 22 years old while showcasing a style of play that doesn't rely as much on explosiveness, which could be more relatable to young fans. Hailing from Slovenia, Luka looks to be the next face of Jordan Brand and its flagship Air Jordan line.
