Giannis Antetokounmpo is looking to ramp up his 94 overall rating in NBA 2K19, but before he can do that, he will need to get stronger than his 6-foot-11, 222-pound frame indicates.

The Greek Freak has now turned into what seems to be a new pastime, taking to his first boxing lesson and showing some promise with a good mix of range and footwork.

Photos of him and his brothers hitting the gym recently surfaced, showing the gains after a mere two months of his offseason, yet this cardiovascular workout is one that will keep him relatively lean while making the most of his reflexes.

It's scary to think about what a heavyweight the size of Antetokounmpo could do with the proper training. It brings back memories to the now-retired Darko Milicic (a 7-footer on his own right), who took on a boxing career after a failed stint in the NBA, which turned into yet another failure.

Other former NBA players have been keen on boxing even after playing in the league. The likes of Kevin Garnett, Al Harrington, Rasheed Wallace, and David West are still fans of “the sweet science” and the benefits it has as a part of their workout regimen.
