"There's no doubt that all eyes are on the current situation between Giannis Antetokounmpo and his uncertain future with the Milwaukee Bucks. The two-time MVP has refrained from making a trade demand out of Milwaukee, at least publicly. However, with the recent struggles of Milwaukee prior to Antetokounmpo's calf injury, the writing seemed to be on the wall for the superstar to get the fresh start that nearly everyone has expected him to be seeking."
"Obviously, nearly every team has hope that they will be listed as a preferred landing spot for the Greek Freak, but with his desire to play on a contender, it's become crystal clear that any list Antetokounmpo makes will include playoff caliber teams ready to make a run at a championship sooner rather than later. For any Washington Wizards' fans, that would seemingly take the team out of the running for any chance to land the star player, but crazier things have happened."
Giannis Antetokounmpo has not publicly demanded a trade from the Milwaukee Bucks, but his future with the team is uncertain. Milwaukee struggled before Antetokounmpo's calf injury, increasing expectations that the superstar might seek a fresh start. Reports indicate Milwaukee's front office may accept that a trade could be best for both sides as the NBA trade deadline nears. Most teams hope to be considered, but Antetokounmpo prefers to join a contender, limiting realistic destinations to playoff-caliber clubs. Antetokounmpo lacks a no-trade clause, so the Bucks control any decision. Comparisons to Toronto's Kawhi trade show surprising moves can happen. ESPN's Bobby Marks outlined what Washington would need to offer and noted Washington has already traded for a four-time All-Star in Trae Young.
