How the Bucks and Sen. Kohl fought for Giannis and his family 10 years ago

In honor of Giannis' tenth season in Milwaukee, our friend Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel wrote about possibly the most important move Milwaukee has made for Antetokounmpo. It was not an easy transition to American life for the future NBA Finals MVP, but the absence of the 18-year-olds family made the move all the more difficult. Jim joined Mike Heller and Billy Schmid to discuss his piece on the battles the Bucks organization had with the US immigration system, and ultimately how former owner Sen. Herb Kohl helped bring the Antetokounmpos to America.
