The Milwaukee Bucks “remain hopeful” that Giannis Antetokounmpo won’t request a trade following the team’s third straight first-round playoff exit, according to NBA insider Marc Stein.

Over the last few years, Antetokounmpo has been mentioned in trade rumors. However, this offseason there is legitimate reporting connecting him to a potential trade. According to a recent report from ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania, Antetokounmpo is "open-minded" to the idea of being traded by the Bucks.

It's not a given that Giannis Antetokounmpo is traded. But if the Milwaukee Bucks decide to move the Greek Freak, he might have a few destinations in mind. Antetokounmpo decided to hold a Q&A on X (formerly Twitter) in the wee hours of Sunday morning.
