Giannis Antetokounmpo linked up with a trainer who works closely with Philadelphia 76ers star, Joel Embiid.
center Joel Embiid has put in a lot of work with hoops trainer, Drew Hanlen. While Embiid works closely with the personal trainer during the offseason and the regular season, Hanlen has other star clients, including Boston’s Jayson Tatum.
It’s safe to say Hanlen’s work was a success with his Philly-based clients last year. And it hasn’t gone unnoticed across the league.“Skills instructor Drew Hanlen headed to Greece to work out with Bucks players, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, on their annual sojourn to Athens,” Owczarski reported. “MarJon Beauchamp, Andre Jackson Jr. and Chris Livingston were part of the contingent of players.”
Even as a one-time NBA Champion, two-time NBA MVP, eight-time All-Star, and a Defensive Player of the Year winner, Antetokoumpo has room for growth. Perhaps, working with Hanlen could help the Greek Freak improve his shooting touch. Just last season, Embiid averaged 39 percent from their three-point line. After knocking down a career-high 55 percent from the field in 2022-2023, Embiid followed by averaging 53 percent from the field last season.
