NBA, svelati i quintetti difensivi: Giannis Antetokounmpo rimane fuori e la prende male

A guidare i quintetti difensivi dell'anno non poteva che esserci Jaren Jackson Jr, fresco vincitore del titolo di Defensive Player of the Year. Fa rumore però l'esclusione di Giannis Antetokounmpo, che esce dalla lista dei dieci perché considerato ala e non centro: sui social ha dimostrato di non averla presa per niente bene. Ecco i risultati della votazione e la "promessa" di Antetokounmpo

Giannis non ha preso bene l'esclusione dal secondo quintetto, scrivendo su Twitter "Sono stanco della mancanza di rispetto. Sto arrivando". L'All-Star dei Bucks in verità ha preso più voti (44) e punti (60) di Bam Adebayo (rispettivamente 40 e 53), ma è stato considerato ala e non centro a differenza del lungo di Miami. E i posti da ala sono stati occupati quindi da Anunoby e Green (81 e 89 punti), lasciando quindi fuori il Difensore dell'Anno del 2020
