No specific teams were appointed in the report, and it did not seem that the Bucks were in active discussion to exchange the NBA champion and the double MVP. However, the team and representatives of Antetokounmpo should talk about the future during the offseason.
The question of whether it would remain in Milwaukee is looming as soon as the Pacers of Indiana eliminated the bucks in the playoffs. He was asked immediately after the loss of the playoffs if he still thought he could win a second championship with the Bucks.
“I’m not going to do that. I’m not going to do this,” said Antetokounmpo. “I know … Whatever I say, I know how it will translate. I don’t know, guy. I would like me to play. I would like to be in competition and go back to Milwaukee. I don’t know.”

He still has two years guaranteed on his contract in addition to a player option for the 2027-28 season.
Milwaukee made a big swing while trying to build a team responsible for superstar to reach this second title. The Bucks exchanged Damian Lillard to associate with Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton.
However, since the 2021 championship, the team has not returned to the conference final and has been eliminated eliminatory series in the first consecutive round. The team went from Mike Budenholzer to Adrian Griffin to Doc Rivers as a chief coach.
The Brooklyn Nets, New Orleans Pélicans, San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets have all been appointed potential contenders for the star player. The image could become clearer once the NBA recovery lottery manages after Monday evening.
