Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo announced on twitter Friday afternoon that he and his family will donate $100,000 to the Fiserv Forum staff.
It’s bigger than basketball! And during this tough time I want to help the people that make my life, my family’s lives and my teammates lives easier. Me and my family pledge to donate $100,000 to the Fiserv Forum staff. We can get through this together! ??

Antetokounmpo’s act follows that of Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love, who donated $100,000 to the Cavaliers’ arena staff yesterday.
The NBA suspended their season two days ago due to the recent Coronavirus outbreak. Commissioner Adam Silver said yesterday that the season will be suspended for a minimum of thirty days.
