The Greek Freak is staying in Milwaukee.

The Milwaukee Bucks have signed Giannis Antetokounmpo to a four-year, $100 million deal according to Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical. General manager John Hammond struck a deal before Antetokounmpo was set to hit restricted free agency in 2017. Brian Windhorst of ESPN.com adds the contract includes no options and Antetokounmpo took less than the max to help the Bucks going forward.

All-in-all, Milwaukee signed their franchise players to a reasonable deal. The NBA landscape shifted dramatically this summer, as a rising cap led to ridiculous contracts. Top free agents Mike Conley Jr (five-year, $152 million), Bradley Beal (five-year, $128 million), and Nicholas Batum (five-year, $120 million) received absurd deals.

Meanwhile, rotation players Timofey Mozgov (four-year, $64 million), Bismack Biyombo (four-year, $72 million), and Allen Crabbe (four-year, $72 million) all landed insane money. Putting Antentokounmpo’s contract in perspective, there’s plenty of value for the Bucks.

Antetokounmpo was a risky draft pick for Milwaukee, who selected the Greece native 15th overall in 2013. At 18, the small forward had all the physical tools necessary to become a star, born with ridiculous length, massive hands, and a surprising handle. In 2015-16, his third season, the Greek Freak averaged 16.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.3 blocks. Antetokounmpo was given more ball handling responsibility in Jason Kidd’s offense and at times, was Milwaukee’s primary ball-handler. His versatility is unparalleled. Antetokounmpo can play virtually any position, as his athleticism and length make him the perfect swiss army knife for the Bucks on both sides of the ball.

Antetokounmpo has flashed serious potential in three NBA seasons, but what’s nuts is he’s not even close to being fully developed. At 21, he’s younger than New Orleans guard Buddy Hield and Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Kris Dunn, both taken in this year’s draft. Without sounding overly cliche, the sky is the limit for his development. There’s no telling what a finished product might look like.

Despite finishing well under .500 in 2015-16 with a 33-49 record, signs exist the Bucks are on the cusp of something special. Outside Antetokounmpo, Jabari Parker has the tools to become a star small forward – although, he’s still got ways to go. The Bucks drafted another wild card in Thon Maker, a 7″1′ center who’s very raw but has extreme length and can stretch the floor.

Milwaukee added to its core this summer, bringing in a slew of veterans, including Matthew Dellavedova, Mirza Teletovic, and re-signing center Miles Plumlee. Add the existing core of Michael Carter-Williams, John Henson, and Khris Middleton, and the Bucks aren’t as bad as last year’s record suggests.

One thing is guaranteed in Milwaukee: the Greek Freak will continue to be a damn pleasure to watch. Antentonkoumpo still needs to refine his game, but his unique talent makes the contract a no-brainer. The Bucks locked up key seasons of his upcoming free agency, while avoiding paying him the max. It’s a win-win for all involved.
