The Milwaukee Bucks are signing forward Alex Antetokounmpo to a two-way contract, ESPN reported on Monday.

With Alex joining older brothers Giannis and Thanasis, it will mark the first time in NBA history that three siblings were on the same active roster, per ESPN.

Alex Antetokounmpo, 24, had stints in the NBA G League from 2021-24 but has never appeared in a regular-season NBA game. He had been playing overseas, most recently with Aris in his native Greece.


Giannis Antetokounmpo, 30, is a nine-time All-Star forward and two-time league MVP who is entering his 13th season with the Bucks. He led Milwaukee to an NBA championship in 2020-21.

Thanasis Antetokounmpo, 33, has been playing for the Bucks since the 2019-20 season and was also part of the title-winning squad.

A fourth sibling, Kostas Antetokounmpo, 27, played parts of three NBA seasons with the Dallas Mavericks (2018-19) and Los Angeles Lakers (2019-21).
