We certainly knew about the Greek Freak and Khris Middleton, but Giannis Antetokounmpo won’t be alone next week. More Milwaukee Bucks are joining the party at the NBA All-Star festivities.
The NBA officially made Pat Connaughton one of four NBA players which they announced for the slam dunk competition on Saturday, February 15 in Chicago.

Additionally, the NBA named Middleton not only as a star joining Team Giannis in the All-Star game on Sunday, Feb. 16, but a participant in the skills challenge event.
