Ever since the Milwaukee Bucks drafted him in 2013, the team has had no worries about retaining superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, with the young star always making it clear he’s loyal to the franchise and didn’t want to play anywhere else.
With one NBA title to his credit and potentially realizing that his championship window in Milwaukee might be closed, Antetokounmpo seems to be changing his tune.
It appears that he is more than willing to change teams in the NBA if it means he has a better chance of winning another Larry O’Brien Trophy during his career.
The Bucks superstar recently made the following comments about his future with the team, and it’s not a great sign for the Bucks, as he’s clearly considering a future elsewhere in the NBA if it bodes well to add another trophy to his trophy case, via NBA on TNT.

With Antetokounmpo making his intentions clear, interested teams will be scrambling to figure out a way to bring the two-time NBA MVP to their city, with the New York Knicks potentially being an intriguing destination.
The upcoming 2023-24 NBA season could end up being the last for Antetokounmpo in a Bucks uniform, as a trade request could be on the horizon if he doesn’t like the way things are trending in Milwaukee.
The Giannis watch has officially begun in the NBA, with no telling where he’ll be playing once his time with the Bucks is officially over.
All eyes will be on him next season, with every quote overanalyzed and constant questions about his future bound to be thrown his way on a regular basis.
