体坛英语新闻：I'm only at 60 percent of my potential, says NBA MVP Antetokounmpo

WASHINGTON, July 14 (Xinhua) -- Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, who's won his first NBA MVP award in the past season, said on Saturday that he believes his game has a lot of room to grow and is ready to unleash more potential in future.

"A lot of people say, 'You are the MVP, you are one of the best players in the league, you are so dominant', but I think I can get better. I think I am at 60 percent of my potential, as good as I can be. I just want to be better," Antetokounmpo told ESPN on Saturday night.

"If I am in the same situation again in the East Finals, I will react better, play the game better and execute better," the 24-year-old added.

Antetokounmpo averaged career-highs with 27.7 points, 12.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists last season. With Antetokounmpo leading the way, Milwaukee won an NBA-best 60 games in regular season and started the playoffs 10-1 before losing four straight games to the Toronto Raptors in the East Finals.

"My goal is going to stay the same: Take it day by day, step by step, and the ultimate goal is to win a championship," Antetokounmpo said. "As long as that we are all on the same page, we will all be focused on that goal. We got to focus on winning a championship."
