NBA player Giannis Antetokounmpo and his girlfriend Mariah Ruddlesprigger took a “very inappropriate” photo that sent fans into a frenzy.

The 28-year-old Bucks forward posted the dangerous photo to Instagram, where he has 14.4 million followers.

After more than six years of dating, Giannis and his 30-year-old longtime partner Mariah have two sons together.

The couple, who currently reside in Milwaukee, often like to keep their affair private.

However, for his most recent social media post, the seven-foot-tall “Greek Freak” made an exception.

The former first-round pick posted two pictures of himself with Mariah, who was wearing denim trousers with his name on them.

Giannis wore a long white winter coat and a chic turtleneck.

In a second photo, which has received over 1.2 million likes, the NBA player is shown cupping his hand cheekily over his long-term partner’s butt.

After seeing the potentially offensive photo, which Giannis captioned, basketball fanatics poured into the comment area, saying, “Mine.”

With a grin, one fan said, “Who let this man run his own Instagram account.”

“All-star break did something to this man,” said another.

A third, however, stated: “Giannis Antetokounmpo, this is completely inappropriate.”

A fourth jokingly said, “Giannis, wife her already.”

Giannis entered the 2023 NBA All-Star Game with a wrist injury and only played twenty seconds.

He gave the following explanation for his choice: “I don’t think playing a lot of minutes in an All-Star Game was smart in any way.”

“You clearly want to take part at the end of the day. You want to hustle, dunk, joke about, run up and down, and create more, but you also need to be mature at the end of the day.

“It was a hard but mature decision to kinda take a break, take care of it and hopefully be available for my team.”

On Friday, February 24, the Bucks will play again at Fiserv Forum against the Miami Heat.
