Giannis trade buzz is running rampant. With his reported open-mindedness about his future with the Bucks, and an important meeting with the organization coming up, teams and fans across the league are strapping up for a blockbuster trade request. However, independent NBA reporter Marc Stein says Milwaukee remains “hopeful” that Antetokounmpo will stay committed to the franchise:
This is encouraging news, as it suggests the team hasn’t heard any concrete word about Giannis wanting to leave. The optimism feels warranted considering the superstar’s track record. Trade rumors have surrounded Antetokounmpo’s name many a time, but he’s silenced all of them with his loyalty.
