Giannis Antetokounmpo was spotted watching the World Cup semi-final between France and Spain in an unexpected location.
Antetokounmpo was recently traded from the Milwaukee Bucks to the Miami Heat, but he was not in either city.
The Greek Freak actually chose to watch the game in another American city with an Eastern Conference NBA team.
Antetokounmpo is a big soccer fan, having grown up in Europe, but no one would have guessed where he watched this game.

Giannis Antetokounmpo watches France vs Spain World Cup semi-final from Atlanta cafe
Antetokounmpo watched the France vs Spain game in the Brewhouse Cafe in the Little Five Points district of Atlanta.
The English-style pub is a popular destination for soccer fans and was very busy during the first World Cup semi-final.
Antetokounmpo probably would have preferred to go unnoticed at the venue, but that is impossible when you are nearly seven-feet tall.
We do not know why Antetokounmpo was in Atlanta, but it suggests that he could attend the second semi-final.
England will play Argentina at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Wednesday, and perhaps Antetokounmpo will be there.
He would not be the first NBA player to attend a World Cup match, as many have been spotted throughout the tournament.
Anthony Edwards, OG Anunoby, Jimmy Butler, Paolo Banchero and Zach LaVine have all watched World Cup games.
