Giannis Antetokounmpo is known for his incredible talent on the court, but it turns out his off-court timing leaves something to be desired. In a recent podcast appearance, former NBA player Myles Turner shared some behind-the-scenes stories from his time with the Milwaukee Bucks, and the details are turning heads.

Turner, who signed a four-year, $100 million deal with the Bucks last offseason after the team waived Damian Lillard, painted a picture of a team with a relaxed approach to punctuality. "If the plane took off at 2 o'clock, we weren't leaving till 4:30," Turner revealed. "I'm being so serious, bro. It was crazy, dawg. Guys were an hour late to the plane. It got to the point where I knew not to show up until an hour after they said the plane was taking off. It was crazy."

When host Stewart asked Turner which teammate was most likely to be late, the answer came without hesitation. "Oh, that's easy," Turner said. "Giannis. Giannis is going to show up whenever he wants, really."

This revelation adds context to reports that Antetokounmpo had been wavering on his commitment to the Bucks this season. Turner's comments suggest that the two-time MVP operates on his own schedule, and the team seems to accommodate it. "I think that this kind of just came with the territory," Turner explained. "Once I saw it was going down, I was like, 'Hey man, more power to you. They ain't going to fine you. Do what you do.'"

For Bucks fans, this story offers a glimpse into the superstar's personality—and a reminder that even the best players march to the beat of their own drum. Whether it's a game-winning shot or a delayed flight, Giannis is going to do it his way.
