The Milwaukee Bucks have found themselves in a precarious position this offseason.
They made a bunch of moves looking to remain as one of the top contenders in the sport.
But, they also are doing their best to appease star player Giannis Antetokounmpo.
He is the present and future of the Bucks and someone they hope spends his entire career in Milwaukee.
Yet, if things go awry in Milwaukee, Giannis could be on his way out.
If Giannis did request a trade every team in the NBA should be interested.
But, only a select few contending teams would have the chance to land him.
According to NBACentral, via Marc Stein, the Los Angeles Lakers and New York Knicks are potential landing spots.

Both of those teams play in a big market and could help increase the stardom of Giannis.
But, those are not the only teams that should be mentioned.
The Golden State Warriors are a team that could acquire the services of the two-time MVP.
The Warriors showed this year that they are going all-in on the Stephen Curry timeline.
So adding win-now players is something the Warriors will continue to do.
Players like Antetokounmpo are rarely available on the trade market.
He is a once-in-a-generation player who can turn any team into a title contender.
Whenever a star is available, you can assume the Lakers would be interested.
It would not be a surprise to see the Lakers try to convince Giannis to take over the team once LeBron James retires.
