NBA

ATHENS, Greece — Giannis Antetokounmpo says he will play for Greece at this year’s basketball World Cup in China, adding that he can play any position.

The Milwaukee Bucks player and NBA MVP says he hasn’t “talked to the coach about which position I’ll be playing … the important thing is to play.”

The 32-team tournament starts in China on Aug. 31.

Antetokounmpo is in Athens to present his signature shoe and will also attend a 3×3 tournament he sponsors near his Athens home, where he first played basketball.
