Overview
- ESPN’s Shams Charania reported that Giannis is open-minded about whether his long-term future lies in Milwaukee or with another franchise.
- NBA insider Stefan Bondy estimates the odds of Giannis being traded at about 60/40 and says the Bucks will only move him if they receive a deal that “makes a lot of sense.”
- DraftKings odds list Milwaukee as the favorite to retain Giannis (–140), with the Spurs (+380), Rockets (+450) and Raptors (+800) as the most likely trade destinations.
- Milwaukee has secured just one postseason series win since its 2021 title and endured a third straight first-round exit this spring, compounded by Damian Lillard’s season-ending Achilles tear.
- Newsweek reports that Raptors President Masai Ujiri’s entering a contract year could prompt Toronto to chase a marquee off-season acquisition.
