Unbelievable, Giannis is unbelievable! The NBA's top figure of both action and stance.

“If the Bucks can't win a championship or don't want to, then I will leave,” “If I could decide on my own, I might have already left Milwaukee”...

Giannis keeps psychologically pressuring the Bucks management all the time. Initially, this earned some public sympathy, but repeating it over and over quickly leads to backlash.

It's definitely a case of him bringing trouble on himself.

Before this year's trade deadline, as the biggest name, Giannis ultimately stayed in Milwaukee.

It’s worth mentioning that on October 1st, he became eligible to sign a four-year, $275 million super max extension with the Bucks. If he were traded during this summer’s offseason, he would have to wait six months from the trade date before signing a maximum contract.

Born on December 6, 1994, Giannis is now 31 years old. This season (with a salary of $54.13 million), he averages 28 points, 10 rebounds, and 5.6 assists in 29.2 minutes per game, shooting an impressive 64.5%. His current contract runs through 2028, with the final two seasons totaling around $120 million in salary.

As for the Bucks’ record so far this season, they stand at 23 wins and 30 losses, ranked 12th in the Eastern Conference, 1.5 games behind the 10th-place Hawks. Although they still have a chance to make the play-in tournament, making the playoffs is unlikely, let alone competing for the championship.

Moreover, with the current Bucks roster, Giannis is the only superstar, and there are no reliable young prospects. So not only is there no championship hope this season, but the team is also unlikely to contend for a title in the next few years unless they manage to acquire star players through trades or free agency. The last All-Star who willingly brought his talent to Milwaukee was Lillard.

If Giannis’s statements above are true—that he will leave if he sees no championship chances with the Bucks—then this summer’s offseason will see him stirring up the NBA trade market again, with many teams ready to eagerly take him in, including the Lakers of the Purple and Gold.
