NBA News: Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the most beloved athletes in the NBA, and certainly the state of Wisconsin. While most of the attention in the NBA right now is on the start of free agency (which is off to a crazy start), Giannis Antetokounmpo’s potentially uncertain future with the Milwaukee Bucks has teams keeping one eye on that situation as well. How much of an “uncertain future” is there?
Report Of Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Uncertain Future With The Milwaukee Bucks Has Fans On Edge
An article recently published by Bleacher Report highlighted the fact that Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future in Milwaukee is not guaranteed:
Per SNY’s Ian Begley, “several teams” are monitoring things with the two-time NBA MVP, who is eligible to sign an extension later this offseason.
In the aftermath of Milwaukee’s first-round playoff loss to the Miami Heat, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst said on NBA Today it’s “unlikely” Antetokounmpo signs an extension this offseason.
There are a few reasons Antetokounmpo, who is eligible to sign a new deal on Sept. 22, may want to keep his options open. First, he’s got two more guaranteed years left on his current deal plus a $51.9 million player option for 2025-26.
Robin Adams, Co-Owner of Wisconsin Sports Heroics, highlighted three major reasons why Giannis Antetokounmpo ever leaving Milwaukee is rubbish.
