Giannis Antetokounmpo Calls Out Teammates, Vows to 'Put on the Cape' for Bucks

His remarks underscore a renewed push for accountability following his return from a calf injury.

Overview

After a loss before the new year, Antetokounmpo said some teammates were not doing the right things and warned that can pull a team in the wrong direction.
He pledged to be a stronger leader by defending better, moving the ball, and playmaking more, saying he is ready to "put on the cape."
Antetokounmpo said the offense should run more through him, noting he often receives the ball only in scoring spots and needs to create for others as well.
He pointed to a defeat against the Wizards as the type of game Milwaukee must win to climb the standings.
Since returning from injury, he has helped deliver some wins and appears firmly committed to Milwaukee despite ongoing trade chatter.
