The first Greek participation in the NBA All Star Game has not only benefited Greek basketball but the tourism sector too.
Giannis Antetokounmpo was the focus of attention in the recent "celebration" of New Orleans, where the biggest stars of the NBA gathered and coincided with the "high season" of Americans' reservations to European destinations.
Two days after the end of the All Star Game, the social media still write about the achievements of Antetokounmpo with the nickname the "Greek Freak."
According to US travel agencies, all this fame of Antetokounmpo has attracted the interest of American tourists who choose Greece over other famour European destinations for their next holidays
