Giannis Antetokounmpo, Betano’s Global Ambassador, Inaugurates Basketball Court in Brazil

Betano, the leading online sports betting and gaming brand, owned by Kaizen Gaming, has refurbished and revitalised a state-of-the-art basketball court in Leblon, Rio de Janeiro, and invited none other than its global ambassador, Giannis Antetokounmpo, to inaugurate it.
In addition to undergoing a full refurbishment, the court located in Rio de Janeiro now features a stylized design of Giannis Antetokounmpo on the playing surface by Brazilian artist Neto 78.
The inauguration took place on Monday, June 9.
During the event to open the new court, Giannis, known affectionately by fans as the “Greek Freak,” signed the court and unveiled a commemorative plaque to mark the occasion. Following its inauguration, the court hosted its first game as The Payback group, which had regularly used the court in the past, played its debut match. Following the event’s culmination, the court was fully handed over to the community for public use.
George Daskalakis, co-founder and CEO of Kaizen Gaming, said: “The choice of Giannis as our ambassador was a natural one from the beginning, as we have many things in common. We share a journey of humble beginnings in Greece, and through hard work, determination, and a mindset focused on continuous improvement, we have managed to expand our reach globally.”
A Betano ambassador since 2023, Milwaukee Bucks player and two-time NBA MVP (Most Valuable Player), Giannis understands the importance of public spaces as a source of entertainment, social inclusion, and for fostering a consistent and healthy relationship with sports.
Giannis Antetokounmpo said: “My story is deeply connected to public courts. That’s how I discovered my passion for basketball. I hope this court inaugurated today by Betano stays full and inspires the development of new talent.”
The court inauguration is part of a broader strategy by the company to support national sports. As the main sponsor of major football championships such as Brasileirão Betano, and Torneo Betano in Argentina, as well as the first official global betting sponsor of the UEFA Euro 2024TM and official partner of CONMEBOL until 2028 – including sponsorship of the CONMEBOL Copa America 2024TM – the company is looking to expand into more areas.
Guilherme Figueiredo, Country Manager of Betano in Brazil, concluded: “We want to be a major supporter of national sports, whether through sponsorships, the construction of public sports spaces, or social transformation initiatives through sport.”
Giannis Antetokounmpo and his family have been in Brazil since last Saturday, invited by Betano. During their stay there, they have the opportunity to get in touch with the people, immerse in the culture of the country and visit landmarks like the statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro. Giannis Antetokounmpo and his family’s presence in Brazil will conclude on Wednesday, June 11th, with their visit to the Kaizen Gaming/Betano office in São Paulo, where they will connect and engage with the company’s local team.
