Giannis Antetokounmpo was set to meet Michael Jordan on Friday, and he agreed to take famous YouTuber IShowSpeed with him. The transcendental experience of meeting "Black Jesus" for the first time can be daunting, and Antetokounmpo warned the streamer to be on his best behavior.
Antetokounmpo joined IShowSpeed in the latter's live stream on Thursday while vacationing in Greece. During the conversation, the Greek Freak revealed that he was going to have a formal meeting with the Chicago Bulls legend. The Milwaukee Bucks star offered the YouTuber the chance to meet Jordan.
"If you are here tomorrow, come with me," Giannis said.

"Really?" Speed said in disbelief.

"Swear to god!"
IShowSpeed, born as Darren Jason Watkins Jr., is known for being hyper whenever he meets his idols. In 2023, when he met his favorite soccer player, Ronaldo, he started jumping in the air and eventually fell to the ground after the soccer great touched him, shouting, "Oh my God! Oh my God!"
Aware of Speed's inability to control his emotions, Giannis Antetokounmpo issued a warning to the YouTuber in advance.
"Hey I gotta tell you, this is set by Nike...don't come to Jordan and start barking shit...he's gonna choke you, he's gonna choke your a**," the Bucks star said.
The Bucks star also revealed that Nike had set up the meeting, and this was his first formal meeting with the NBA legend.
"This is my first formal type meeting with him. I've shake his hand one time but I never met," Giannis said.
