Giannis Antetokounmpo didn’t just land in Budapest for the UEFA Champions League Final — he showed up with a pair of Air Jordan 3s that looked right at home in the city’s spotlight.
The Milwaukee Bucks star was spotted at the Champions League Final in Hungary while taking in the festivities. and photos from the trip also show him wearing a “Wizards” colorway of the Air Jordan 3. The former NBA Finals MVP’s appearance stood out because his public rhythm usually follows his Nike Giannis Freak signature line. not the Jumpman.
Antetokounmpo was later seen at a PlayStation 5 event in Budapest, handing out L’s on the sticks while wearing the same Jordan 3s. It was there that the “Wizards” branding became impossible to miss.
The sneakers themselves carry a clean White/True Blue/Metallic Copper/Cement Grey ensemble. They’re a direct nod to Michael Jordan’s brief stint with the Washington Wizards and include a gold stitched Jumpman on the tongue designed to match the blue-and-gold look the Wizards wore throughout the 2000s.
This pair is also a rare sighting for a star most fans associate with the Giannis Freak line. The Giannis Freak 7 was recently unveiled, but the Budapest trip brought a different kind of attention — one aimed at the classic numbered Air Jordan silhouette.
The “Wizards” Air Jordan 3 was released in 2024 for $210. and the pair can be found for under retail on the current aftermarket. Whether it’s a sign of anything bigger or just a fun stop during an international offseason stretch. the message is clear in the images: a globally recognized athlete stepping out in a mainstream Jordan that many fans can realistically chase.
With the NBA Finals right around the corner and the offseason already here for the rest of the league. Antetokounmpo’s Budapest cameo turned into something more than a quick appearance at a major football weekend. Between the Champions League Final atmosphere and the PlayStation 5 event. the Milwaukee star managed to bring the attention back to what he chose to wear — and that choice ended up doing the talking.
