Giannis Antetokounmpo is among the NBA's greatest success stories when it comes to developmental trips. The two-time MVP is constantly looking to improve his skills. He recently took the time to respond to a video showing him improving in one of his lesser skill sets during an offseason game. The video also showed Dirk Nowitzki.
