NBA's 'Greek Freak' Giannis Antetokounmpo continued his WWE-style routine with Robin Lopez and Wesley Matthews as Giannis' brother Thanasis Antetokounmpo joined them this time. The video starts with Matthews and Giannis attacking Lopez like the last few times. Giannis wears a sock and goes for the cobra finish after Matthews moves aside. However, Thanasis attacks Giannis from behind and proceeds to beat him down. Matthews comes to Giannis' rescue and grabs Thanasis from the back, throwing him off Giannis. Lopez gets back up and comes to Thanasis' rescue. Giannis and others gang up on Lopez before the video ends. The video was released before the Mavericks vs Bucks game on Monday night (Tuesday morning IST).

Before the video was released, Giannis had replied to a post by Milwaukee Bucks. He had asked Lopez if he was tired of getting beaten up. If he was, both of them could team up with Matthews and together take down their brothers – Brook Lopez and Thanasis Antetokounmpo. However, Thanasis betrayed Giannis as the former teamed up with Robin Lopez instead.
