The NBA hiatus is forcing Milwaukee Bucks superstar and reigning MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo to learn new things.
Recently, the Bucks star had some fun with his girlfriend and newborn son:

While this video is no doubt hilarious, we can all agree the sports hiatus is going to be very, very tough to get through.
Giannis and the Bucks had the best record in the NBA again before play was suspended. The Greek Freak was averaging 29.6 points, 13.7 rebounds and 5.8 assists while shooting 54.7 percent from the field, 30.6 percent from beyond the arc and 63.3 percent from the free-throw line.

Milwaukee is desperate to play again, though. After all, the Bucks are currently on a season-high three-game losing streak. They lost to the Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets without Giannis after falling to the Lakers.
The NBA will hopefully start up again in June or July. We can assume that Giannis will stay in shape and practice on his own once he's cleared to play by doctors and the Bucks are made aware of his plans.
In the 2019 playoffs, Giannis and the Bucks lost to Kawhi Leonard and the Toronto Raptors in six games in the Eastern Conference Finals. If the season does resume, Antetokounmpo and Co. will be motivated to avenge last year's loss.
