Bucks news: Kyle Korver explains what makes LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo unique

Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard Kyle Korver has had the pleasure of playing with both LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

James is a four-time MVP and three-time champion, while Giannis is the reigning MVP and eager to lead the Bucks to the Finals after coming up short last season. Milwaukee lost to the Toronto Raptors in six games in the Eastern Conference Finals after taking a 2-0 series lead.

Many have wondered what makes LeBron and Giannis so unique. Korver has great insight into this question since he has been teammates of both superstars. The Bucks' sharpshooter explained to Joe Vardon of The Athletic why James and Antetokounmpo are special talents:

“The most incredible thing about LeBron to me is he’s been at the top for a really long time and somehow finds the drive to stay there, to maintain his focus,” Korver said. “I don’t think anyone who’s around him doubts that the game is the most important thing.

“Giannis is that way too. Giannis, MVP last year, how’s he going to respond being a 25-year old, MVP, gets a signature shoe, all the things that come with being MVP? How your life changes, how people talk to you, how people see you as an opportunity. Your life changes when you are rewarded in that way at this level. But he keeps the game the most important thing. It’s unique and they both have that.”
