Giannis Antetokounmpo and Doc Rivers Break Silence on Shocking Bucks-Knicks Trade Rumors—What’s Really Happening?
Notably, Antetokounmpo left the door open there for an exit in the future.
The two-time league MVP has spent his entire career with the Bucks, who selected him with the No. 15 overall pick in 2013 out of Greece. He averaged 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds and 6.5 assists last season while making a league-high 11.8 field goals per game.

The Bucks, though, are in a weird spot. The franchise, which went 48-34 last season, was knocked out of the playoffs in the first round for a third straight campaign. They lost Damian Lillard, Brook Lopez and Pat Connaughton in the offseason, too, while picking up Myles Turner. It’s easy to understand why Antetokounmpo may want to be traded to a championship contender, especially as he enters his 13th season in the league and will turn 31 in December. He’s in the back half of his career, after all.
