Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo recently took to X—formerly known as Twitter—to announce the birth of his baby daughter, Eva Brooke. The former two-time NBA MVP posted a picture of his newborn girl along with his sons, Liam and Maverick, on the social media platform, adding another chapter to the family life of the "Greek Freak."

Girl Dad

Giannis now gets to try to become a "girl dad," much like one of his role models, the late great Kobe Bryant. Though he's bringing up two young boys, this new experience will enrich Giannis' life and give him a different perspective as he takes on this new challenge. It was only last week that Giannis and his fiancée, Mariah Riddlesprigger, announced that they were expecting a baby girl.

The couple also announced their engagement during the news conference of the National Diaper Need Awareness Week. Giannis added how his two boys were excited to welcome their baby sister.

"We want to have a big family. I know my two boys are going to be extremely excited to meet their little sister and protect her and spend time with her and play with her and grow up with her," Giannis said.

Busy offseason

Giannis has had a jam-packed offseason filled with various events. From globetrotting to undergoing a knee procedure straight after last season, he's now preparing himself for a pivotal campaign. The Bucks aim to overcome the disappointment of their premature departure from the NBA Playoffs last year.
