Milwaukee bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo stopped to sign an autograph for a young fan before Saturday’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers, but the salutary interaction turned out to be something else.
Two young Bucks fans waited for Antetokounmpo to return to the locker room to get his signature on a hat.

But moments later, cameras caught the same fan taking off an Antetokounmpo jersey to Tyrese Maxey jersey below.
