The forward for the Milwaukee Bucks, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has four brothers—Francis, Thanasis, Kostas, and Alex, with two playing in the NBA—shares three children with his fiancée Mariah Riddlesprigger: sons Liam, 4, and Maverick Shai, 3, and their newborn daughter Eva Brooke. Antetokounmpo moved from Athens, Greece, to the United States in 2013 to play in the NBA. Over his career, the father of three has earned several prestigious awards, including MVP, NBA Champion, Finals MVP, and Defensive Player of the Year, and is known as “The Greek Freak.
While he seldom posts pictures of his children on social media, his fiancée frequently expresses her love for their family. “Giannis, I seriously adore everything about you. My life would be dull without your light. The father you are to our boys is breathtaking. Happy Birthday My Love I promise this year is going to be magical 💛,” Riddlesprigger posted on Instagram in celebration of Antetokounmpo’s birthday in December 2022.
Liam, 4
Antetokounmpo’s first son, Liam, was born on February 10, 2020. Shortly after his first birthday in 2021, Liam attended his first Bucks home game to support his father. Since then, the young fan has seen plenty of basketball, including sitting courtside at the 2021 NBA All-Star game and witnessing the Bucks clinch the NBA Championship later that year. Despite his success, Antetokounmpo has made it clear his son is his priority. In a 2021 interview with Bucks announcer Jim Paschke, he shared, “If my son asked me, ‘Dad, when are you going to retire and play more with me?’ I’d retire right now.
Maverick Shai, 3
On August 18, 2021, Antetokounmpo and Riddlesprigger welcomed their second son, Maverick. The couple announced they were expecting again in May 2021. “Liam and Baby #2, thank you for giving me purpose! 💛,” Riddlesprigger posted while also launching her lifestyle brand, Sincerely Mariah. Three months after Maverick’s birth, the parents hosted a diaper drive to support their community, acknowledging the high cost of basic needs for children.
Eva Brooke
In September 2023, the couple announced the birth of their daughter, Eva Brooke, on Instagram. They shared a heartwarming photo of their sons with their new sister, captioning it, “Welcome Home Eva Brooke Antetokounmpo 🤍 Daddy’s Little Girl and Brothers’ Baby Sister 👦🏽👦🏽👧🏽.” The pregnancy was first revealed in May, with a festive photo in front of a pink-and-blue balloon arch and a “BABY” sign.
