Giannis set on 2nd title with Bucks or elsewhere

""The same thing I've been saying my whole career, I want to be in a team that allows me and gives me a chance to win a championship," said Antetokounmpo, who is sitting out the start of training camp after testing positive for COVID-19. "I think it's a disservice to basketball, just to the game, to not want it to compete in a high level, to want your season to end in April.""

""It's not the first time. I had the same thoughts last year," Antetokounmpo said. "I had the same thoughts two years ago. I had the same thoughts five years ago. It is never going to change. I want to be among the best. I want to compete with the best and I want to win another championship.""

Giannis Antetokounmpo reiterated his desire to win a second championship and confirmed he explored over the summer whether his best long-term fit was in Milwaukee or elsewhere. He is sitting out the start of training camp after testing positive for COVID-19. The Bucks have been eliminated in the first round in three consecutive seasons, and Antetokounmpo has not played beyond the first round since 2022. He said he has had the same thoughts in prior years but remains intent on competing with the best. He expressed optimism about the addition of Myles Turner and younger, more athletic teammates.
