Giannis Antetokounmpo says he won't sign Bucks extension unless 'everybody's on the same page'

Giannis Antetokounmpo is under contract with the Milwaukee Bucks for two more seasons, but will soon be eligible to sign a three-year, $173 million extension that could tie him to Milwaukee for at least the next five years.

It apparently won't be that simple.

The two-time NBA MVP discussed his contract status with Tania Ganguli of The New York Times, outright stating he doesn't plan to sign an extension when eligible in a few weeks and indicating there are still some things he wants to see before agreeing to a deal next summer:

“The real question’s not going to be this year — numbers-wise it doesn’t make sense,” Antetokounmpo said.
