“It can’t always go your way,” explained Giannis, “Growing up, I was never like spoiled. I was never like a brat, thinking that everything would go my way in life. Like it’s supposed to go this way, and I’m supposed to win every single year. Or I put the work and it’s supposed to translate on the court. Sometimes it doesn’t, and you have to understand that. I keep on believing in myself, keep on believing in God, and knowing that he puts me in a position that I’m supposed to be, and that he never makes mistakes, and I just keep on coming, keep on coming every single year. One day, it’s going to be my turn.” -via EuroHoops.net / April 30, 2025
