Overview
- The Golden State Warriors are considered the best-positioned team to trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo due to their control of five future first-round picks and three second-round picks.
- The Houston Rockets are seen as a viable trade partner but may need to include Jalen Green and future picks to meet the Bucks' demands.
- The Milwaukee Bucks reportedly prefer a trade package centered around Jalen Green over Alperen Şengün, though no formal offers have been made.
- The Los Angeles Lakers are effectively out of contention for a Giannis trade due to their lack of draft picks until 2031, limiting their ability to compete with other teams' offers.
- Giannis's personal preference will play a critical role in determining any trade, with experts noting that his explicit declaration of a desired destination could influence negotiations.
