Giannis Antetokounmpo has always been vocal about his love for candies and sweets. So much so that the former MVP went on to become a stockholder in Candy Funhouse a couple of years ago. Now, Antetokounmpo is sharing his favorite treat, as a package was received by tennis superstar Serena Williams‘ husband Alexis Ohanian.
Alexis Ohanian and his daughter Olympia seemed excited to receive the package from Giannis Antetokounmpo. Before Ohanian could express his appreciation it seemed that Olympia already got a piece of the candy. The entrepreneur posted the video on his Instagram story and wrote ‘Thanks’ with tagging Antetokounmpo. Ohanian even teased his daughter about it. “Olympia, who ate all these candies?” Alexis Ohanian said.
In the package, Antetokounmpo sent multiple flavors of his own brand Neuro Gums. The father-daughter duo gave a thorough review of all the candies in the package. With his brand, the present also included some rare collaborations of other brands. Ohanian was delighted to try the candies he was unaware of.

Ohanian and Williams both have shared a close relationship with the Antetokounmpos for a long time. Recently, the entrepreneur was spotted attending the Milwaukee Bucks’ NBA Cup finals where he congratulated Antetokounmpo on the win. It seems that the Bucks forward is returning the gesture with candies.
Alexis Ohanian supported Giannis Antetokounmpo to honor his father’s legacy
Alexis Ohanian and Antetokounmpo’s relationship goes beyond professional and sports. The tennis star’s husband has developed close relations with both Giannis and his brother Thanasis. Ohanian showed support and respect to the brothers as they honored their father’s legacy who passed away in 2017.
The Antetokounmpo brothers started a foundation named Charles Antetokounmpo Family Foundation (CAFF), named after their father. Ohanian was moved by the initiative and took to his social media to react to the Golf game organized by the foundation. The entrepreneur even revealed that he is a member of the foundation. “Getting to know Giannis, Thanasis, and their family over the years has been a joy (and inspiring as hell) — he’s the real deal and I’m so happy to be a Day Zero supporter of his foundation, honoring his dad’s great legacy,” Ohanian wrote.

Williams and Antetokounmpo have also collaborated for Tomorrow’s Golf League (TGL). The Antetokounmpo brothers have also spent some family time with Williams, Ohanian, and their daughter. Hence, it was not a surprise that the All-Star sent sweets to the family.
