Giannis purchases ownership stake in Brewers

MLB

Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is purchasing a stake in the Milwaukee Brewers, sources tell ESPN.

Antetokounmpo is following the model of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes: small-market star investing in the local baseball franchise, which Mahomes did in joining the Kansas City Royals‘ ownership group.

Antetokounmpo’s decision to buy into the city’s baseball team comes one month after he helped lead the Bucks to Milwaukee’s first NBA title in 50 years.

His commitment to the Bucks organization was cemented when the two-time MVP signed a five-year, $228 million supermax extension with the team in December.

The Brewers also appear to be a sound investment. The team holds an 8½-game lead in the NL Central entering play Friday night and has won four of its last five games.
