The commercial rumors of Giannis Antetokounmpo began to turn on Monday when a new report offered an idea how willing the Milwaukee Bucks star for a possible movement would be.
Antetokounmppo is “open -minded” about seeking to continue his career elsewhere if he decides that his career with the Bucks had followed his course, Espn reported. According to reports, NBA teams were expected to be registered with Milwaukee more frequently than they have been to verify the organization’s temperature on how close they are about exchanging it.

No specific equipment was appointed in the report, and it didn’t seem that the Bucks were in active discussions to exchange the unique NBA champion and twice MVP. However, the team and representatives of Antetokounmpo were expected to talk about the future in the low season.
The question about whether it would stay in Milwaukee rose as soon as the Indiana Pacers eliminated the Bucks in the playoffs. They asked him immediately after the defeat of the playoffs if he still believed he could win a second championship with the Bucks.
“I’m not going to do this. I’m not going to do this,” Antetokounmpo said. “I know … what I say, I know how it will translate. I don’t know, man. I wish I was playing. I wish I was competing and returning to Milwaukee. I don’t know.”

He still has two years guaranteed in his contract in addition to a player option for the 2027-28 season.
Milwaukee gave a big change when trying to build a team loaded with superstar to reach that second title. The Bucks negotiated by Damian Lillard to associate with Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton.
However, since the 2021 championship, the team has not returned to the finals of the conference and has been eliminated from the postseason in the first round three consecutive times. The team was from Mike Budenholzer to Adrian Griffin to Doc Rivers also as a chief coach.
The Brooklyn Nets, the New Orleans Pelicans, the San Antonio Spurs and the Houston Rockets have been appointed potential suitors for the star player. The image could become clearer once the NBA draft lottery is shaken after Monday night.

Antetokounmppo is an All-Star nine times that it has been as shocking in the franchise as Lew Alcindor. During the 2024-25 season, he averaged 30.4 points and 11.9 rebounds per game.
