Giannis Antetokounmpo says he sees similarities between himself and A'ja Wilson on the basketball court

• Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the most dominant players in the NBA.
• The two-time NBA MVP told Insider his comp on the WNBA side is Las Vegas Aces star A'ja Wilson.

MVPs of a feather flock together.

Giannis Antetokounmpo — one of the NBA's biggest stars and a two-time league MVP — is sticking with his own kind when it comes to the WNBA player he thinks is most similar to himself.

"A'ja Wilson," the Milwaukee Bucks forward told Insider without any hesitation.

It's an understandable pick from the seven-time All-Star — who led the Bucks to the 2021 NBA title and earned Finals MVP honors for the effort. Just like Antetokounmpo, Wilson is a two-time league MVP and a polished big who, in addition to dominating the paint, has incorporated a three-point shot into her already impressive repertoire.

And just like "The Greek Freak," she has become the face of her franchise, bringing a highly coveted title to the Las Vegas Aces in 2022 and earning Finals MVP honors for her monumental efforts.

As Antetokounmpo told Insider, "she knows the game of basketball."

"She plays hard," he added. "I like her a lot."

Antetokounmpo is in the midst of his hunt for another NBA title. The 7-footer has led the Bucks to a league-best 55-22 record with a bit more than a week remaining in the regular season.

And thanks to his remarkable 31.1 points, 11.8 rebounds, and 5.6 assists per game this year, Antetokounmpo has once again played his way into the MVP conversation. The NBA's Kia MVP tracker places the Athens native third on its list, behind back-to-back award winner Nikola Jokic and Philadelphia 76ers superstar Joel Embiid.

Wilson, meanwhile, is gearing up to defend her team's title. WNBA training camps kick off on April 30, and with the Aces wooing fellow two-time WNBA MVP Candace Parker to Sin City, the absolutely stacked superteam already looks poised to make a deep postseason run.
