Giannis Antetokounmpo and Mariah Riddlesprigger Expecting Baby Number 3

The NBA star and his longtime girlfriend announced the big news on social media.

NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo may not be in the playoffs this year, but he and his family still have a lot to celebrate. The 28-year-old ball player and his longtime girlfriend, Mariah Riddlesprigger have announced that they are expecting their third child together. In the joint social media post, the couple wrote, "Our dreams becoming reality."

In the post, the couple stands with their sons Liam, 3, and Maverick, 21 months. They all seem to be looking at something in the distance while in front of numerous pink and blue balloons and a sign that says "BABY." The family of four is dressed in matching white shirts and light-colored jeans.

Neither Anteokounmpo nor Riddlesprigger has revealed the sex of the baby or the due date.

Riddlesprigger is the founder of a clothing company called Sincerely Mariah which makes lounge clothes. In 2021, she said that she was inspired to start the company after the isolation of the COVID pandemic and being a new mom. "It's stuff you can wear around the house, you can wear just running to the store," she told The Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune. "I'm big on comfort. If you see me around Milwaukee, I'm most likely in yoga pants or sweats and a sweatshirt. That's my go-to, so I don't want to stray too far from who I am."

Antetokounmpo and the Bucks were eliminated from the playoffs by the Miami Heat, but the world champion power forward remains a fan favorite with many fans and commentators pushing for him to move to the also recently eliminated Golden State Warriors team.

The "Greek Freak" is giving the rumors no energy with his most recent tweet being a sweet Mother's Day post dedicated to Mariah.
