"Although Antetokounmpo acknowledged he had not read the report, he again doubled down on his desire to compete for championships -- be it in Milwaukee or elsewhere. "I've said this many times: I want to be in a situation that I can win," Antetokounmpo said. "I believe in this team. I believe in my teammates. I'm here to lead this team to wherever we can go. It's definitely going to be hard. We're going to take it day-by-day, but I'm here. So all the extra stuff does not matter.""
""I've communicated with my teammates, communicated with the people I respect and love that the moment I step on this court or in this facility, I wear this jersey, the rest does not matter. I'm locked into whatever I have in front of me. Now, if in six, seven months I change my mind, I think that's human, too.""
Giannis Antetokounmpo reiterated commitment to the Milwaukee Bucks while acknowledging it would be human to change his mind months later. The Bucks engaged in trade discussions with the New York Knicks this offseason about a potential deal involving the two-time MVP. Antetokounmpo emphasized his desire to compete for championships, his belief in the team and teammates, and his intent to lead the team. He said he is locked into whatever is in front of him when he steps on the court but that changing his mind in six or seven months would be human. He missed the start of training camp with an illness, rejoined the team in Miami before the first preseason game and did not play; the Bucks host the Pistons Thursday in Milwaukee.
