The Milwaukee Bucks took on the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday night. During this matchup, all three Antetokounmpo brothers eventually saw the court at the same time.
During the postgame interview, Giannis Antetokounmpo reflected on the journey he and his brothers have been on to get into the NBA. He even poked fun at his brother Thanasis for hitting a step-back jumper over Kostas:

A cool moment for the Greek players, as they've each been in the league for a bit now, but Wednesday night was the first time all three played at the same time together. Giannis and Thanasis are on the Bucks, while Kostas is playing for the Lakers.
The Greek Freak loves to see it:
“It's amazing man. And it's been a long journey to be able to [have] the three of us be in the same NBA court man and it's amazing that our mom is right there watching. I could never ask for anything better.”
Giannis also shared a touching moment with his brothers in the win over the Lakers, as this was only the second time in NBA history where three brothers played on the same court at once, with the Holiday brothers doing so earlier in the season.
They each bring something different to the table for their respective teams. Giannis is the superstar for the Bucks, averaging 28.3 points, 11.4 rebounds, and 6.3 assists. Meanwhile, his brother Thanasis plays minimum time right now for Milwaukee, averaging 3.4 points and 2.2 rebounds. Finally, Kostas is the youngest of the three and still adjusting to the professional level, as he's only averaging 0.9 points and 1.4 rebounds per game.
It's unknown as to when the trio will be on the same court again, as the Bucks and Lakers don't play each other for the rest of the season. It's possible they play each other in the Finals, but if not, then it might not be until next season.
