EA Sports Added Giannis Antetokounmpo To ‘Madden 21’ And People Are Confused

Yes, a little crossover always is fun, but this one left people confused.

EA Sports have added NBA defensive player of the year and MVP, Giannis Antetokounmpo to Madden 21. Giannis’ brothers Kostas and Thanasis are also featured and brought to “The Yard”.

While a Madden feature would have made more sense for a player who has played football before, like LeBron James, this Antetokounmpo crossover left everyone confused.

Sports gamers: We want a better franchise mode.

Madden: Okay but what if we put Giannis in the pay-to-win game mode?

The world: "Hey Madden, can you please make franchise mode enjoyable with some new features?"
