Fans thrilled for upcoming biopic

Chris Paul is the current President of the National Basketball Players Association and the star player of the Phoenix Suns while Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks is the 2020 season MVP and his second straight.

It is not a surprise anymore that they will have movies based on their real-life stories.

Disney wrote on social media: "Just announced: three new Original Movies inspired by the real-life stories of Chris Paul (@CP3), Giannis Antetokounmpo (@Giannis_An34), and @KeanonLowe, coming to @DisneyPlus."

It can be remembered that Antetokounmpo tweeted way back in October about the movie and put out a casting call for children to play both him and his brother, Thanasis.

At that time, Giannis revealed that they are looking for teenagers who resemble him and have some experience on the court.

In October, he posted on his social media account and wrote, "Disney is making a movie based on my family's story and they are searching for actors to play me and my brother, Thanasis, in our younger days. No experience necessary! It helps if you resemble the handsome boys pictured below and have some basketball experience. SPREAD THE WORD!"

According to CBS Sports, Giannis Antetokounmpo was already relatively known before he arrived in the NBA.

In fact, he was the 15th overall draft pick during the 2013 NBA Draft and started his professional basketball career with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Basketball coach Spiros Velliniatis first discovered him and he played for Filathlitikos in Greece for two seasons. That is where he developed his skill in playing basketball.

Today, he is one of the star players in the NBA. He became a four-time All-Star, two-time MVP, and a member of the All-NBA First Team on two occasions.

He is also one of the NBA players that has high stats in different fields. During the 2019-2020 season, Giannis Antetokounmpo averaged a career-high 29.5 points and 13.6 rebounds for the Bucks, this helped him to become the season MVP.

The plot of the story is yet to be revealed but it is more likely about how Giannis and Thanasis Antetokounmpo rise from their prominence.

The two NBA players are very known now in the league and are considered as the new stars in the new generation.

Meanwhile, there are less known details about the movies of Chris Paul and Lowe. But Lowe is currently a football analyst at UCLA but has a very large claim to fame.
