Overview

• Alex Antetokounmpo agreed to a two-way contract with Milwaukee, joining Giannis and Thanasis in an NBA first with three brothers on the same active roster.
• To clear space, the Bucks waived guards Jamaree Bouyea and Cormac Ryan, and Alex is expected to split time with the Wisconsin Herd with eligibility for up to 50 NBA games.
• The move follows the Bucks’ earlier one-year deal for Thanasis and reflects an overt retention strategy centered on family for their two-time MVP.
• Giannis said he is “locked in” for the season but has emphasized that his commitment depends on contention after three straight first-round exits.
• Offseason reporting noted preliminary Bucks–Knicks talks and New York as Giannis’ lone outside preference, though Milwaukee rebuffed the idea of a trade and the Knicks face asset and salary constraints.
