Adetokunbo and Sengun Resolve Post-Eurobasket Tensions

The leader of the Greek national team, **Giannis Antetokounmpo**, reached out to Turkish player **Alperen Şengün** after EuroBasket in an effort to ease the tension that had developed between the athletes and their fans. According to BasketNews, the Greek forward took the initiative to make contact and suggested they discuss the situation directly.

The conflict began when Şengün criticized Antetokounmpo’s performance, calling him «not the best passer.» This prompted a strong reaction from the Greek side, leading to an exchange of barbs on social media. The situation escalated further when threats were made against Antetokounmpo’s wife. In light of these developments, the Greek basketball player decided to reach out to his counterpart to prevent any further escalation.
