Giannis Antetokounmpo Reassessing Bucks Future as Knicks Emerge as Preferred Destination

Sidelined with a calf strain, he urged teammates to ignore trade noise as Milwaukee insists he is not available.

Overview

  • Chris Haynes reported Antetokounmpo met Bucks players to emphasize staying focused and said he cannot control whether he is traded.
  • Jake Fischer said Antetokounmpo’s camp planned a 20‑game reevaluation and described league sentiment that the “writing is on the wall” after Milwaukee’s poor start.
  • Marc Stein reported the Bucks continue telling teams he is not on the market even as outside interest intensifies.
  • Multiple insiders say New York is his preferred landing spot, with Miami discussed as a viable alternative and media figures floating packages involving assets such as Tyler Herro, Kel’el Ware and Jalen Johnson.
  • A viral post about a “new” New York home was corrected as an earlier purchase of a Brooklyn apartment building viewed as an investment, not a personal move.
