Giannis Antetokounmpo Dutches His Iconic No. 34 For a Fresh Start in Miami

The NBA landscape just got rocked to its core, and the aesthetics are shifting right along with it. Following his blockbuster trade from the Milwaukee Bucks, Giannis Antetokounmpo is officially leaving his iconic No. 34 in the past. During a massive Kick live stream with creator Neon on Monday, the Greek Freak announced he is rocking No. 7 to kick off his highly anticipated South Beach era. According to a report by Hypebeast, the sudden pivot caught the Miami Heat franchise completely off guard. The team’s front office had already started selling No. 34 Antetokounmpo jerseys both online and in physical stores earlier that morning. Now, the franchise is frantically pivoting to update all orders to the new No. 7. Giannis is following a legendary lineage of superstars like LeBron James and Shaquille O'Neal who swapped their digits upon landing in Miami to chase rings. This is a clean slate for a certified giant. Get ready for the South Beach takeover.
