Check out the top 30 plays from Giannis Antetokounmpo's career.
It finally happened. After 14 years in Milwaukee and several months of speculation on whether the Bucks would trade him, Giannis Antetokounmpo is finally moving.
In a reported trade on Wednesday, Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis are heading to the Miami Heat in exchange for:
- Tyler Herro, Kasparas Jakučionis, Jaime Jaquez Jr and Kel’el Ware.
- Three first-round picks.
- One pick swap and one second-round pick.
Here are some numbers to know about the 31-year-old, two-time Kia MVP.
All stats are for the regular seasons, unless otherwise noted.
1. Some exclusive stats
1. Antetokounmpo is the only player in NBA history to have averaged at least 24 points, nine rebounds, five assists and one block per game over his career. He’s also the only player to average those numbers in the playoffs.
2. He’s one of five players in NBA history with at least seven (qualified) seasons of averaging at least 25 points, 10 rebounds and five assists per game. LeBron James (16), James Harden (nine), Kobe Bryant (seven) and Michael Jordan (seven) are the others.
3. He’s one of three players — Kevin Durant (37) and James (41) are the others — who ranks in the top 15 among active players in career points, rebounds, assists and blocks.
4. He’s the only player in NBA history with multiple seasons (2023-24 and ’24-25) where he shot 60% or better on at least 1,000 field goal attempts. There are six players, each with one such season.
5. He’s the only player who’s played at least 1,000 minutes and had a usage rate of 30% or higher in each of the last nine seasons.
2. Strong in the paint, less so from outside
6. He’s averaged 14.5 points in the paint per game over his career, the third most for any player in the 30 years for which we have shot-location data. His 17 points in the paint per game in the playoffs rank second.
7. Over his career, Antetokounmpo has shot 65.1% in the paint, but has an effective field goal percentage of just 39.3% on shots from outside the paint. That’s the sixth biggest differential among 642 players with at least 1,000 shots both in and outside the paint in the 30 years for which we have shot-location data.
8. He’s shot 557-for-1,953 (28.5%) from 3-point range, the fifth-worst mark among 596 players (and worst among 187 active players) with at least 1,000 career 3-point attempts.
9. The 2025-26 season marked both his highest marks for field goal percentage in the paint (71.3%) and the percentage of his shots that came in the paint (79%). As a result, he registered career-high marks for both effective field goal percentage (63.6%) and true shooting percentage (65.8%).
3. Drawing fouls and assisting on 3s
10. Antetokounmpo has led the league (minimum 25 games played) in fouls drawn per game in each of the last seven seasons. The 3,543 fouls he’s drawn over that stretch are 607 more than any other player has drawn.
11. In terms of assists, 51.9% of them have come on 3-pointers. That’s the third-highest rate among 468 players with at least 1,000 assists in the 30 years for which we have play-by-play data.
12. Last season, 68.9% of his assists came on 3-pointers. That was the second-highest rate for any player with at least 100 assists in a single season over the last 30 years.
4. Antetokounmpo’s impact
13. Opponents have shot just 52.2% at the rim when Antetokounmpo has been there to protect it. That’s the fifth-best rim-protection mark among 46 players who’ve defended at least 2,500 shots at the rim over the 13 seasons of tracking data.
14. The Bucks were better with Antetokounmpo on the floor in 13 of his 14 seasons, with the only exception being 2014-15, his second season in the league. Over the last three seasons, they were 13 points per 100 possessions better with him on the floor (plus-6.2) than they were with him off the floor (minus-6.8), with the much bigger difference on offense.
15. The 2025-26 season included the biggest on-off differential of Antetokounmpo’s career, with the Bucks 14.1 points per 100 possessions better with him on the floor (plus-4.4) than they were with him off (minus-9.7). That was the second biggest on-off differential among 263 players who played at least 1,000 minutes for a single team. But Antetokounmpo’s 1,039 minutes on the floor were also his lowest total by a wide margin, and the Bucks’ nine-year playoff streak came to an end.
