Football Legend Thierry Henry’s Video Makes Giannis Antetokounmpo Emotional

With one of the most dominant performances of all-time in an NBA Finals series, Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Milwaukee Bucks past the Phoenix Suns to win his first NBA championship and Finals MVP, while putting an end to Milwaukee’s 50-year championship drought in the process.

Now, Antetokounmpo’s childhood hero, former French football superstar Thierry Henry, had a special message for the Greek Freak and congratulated him for his accomplishments. Giannis’ reaction was absolutely priceless.

“Hello big man! Just wanted to congratulate you, and say to you FINALLY. I remember you telling me that you were going to be a champ one day and you will do everything in your power to be a champ.

Now you’ve done it. I’m sure you have realized it’s not how you fall, it’s how you get up and how you stand after you’re up. And you’ve done that, for your city, for your team, and for yourself.

They tried to bring you down but you dint listen to the noise and you finally brought a title back to Milwaukee. So now enjoy it, and see you soon champ. You said it, and you delivered it.”
