Howard Beck: Does Giannis ask out? If he does, does he have a list? I poked around a little bit a few days ago and the initial thing I got from one person was just like some rumblings that it’s already just the big cities: One of the LA teams or one of the New York teams or maybe Miami, not a big market, but a glamour market, mid-size market. I think they threw Chicago in there. I can’t remember if Houston came up. It should. So first is like where does Giannis want to go and do they honor that? Because again, back to Damian Lillard, you’re not obligated to honor it.

More on this storyline
The likes of Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Zion Williamson, and Devin Booker will be linked in the rumor mill in the coming weeks, all with different pros and cons depending on Houston’s direction. Team sources say the Rockets will monitor the market closely and will hold internal discussions about potential fits and offers. -via New York Times / May 5, 2025
Marc Stein: I don’t think Giannis himself does not want to go to the Bucks and say ‘trade me’. But next year there’s no way with Damian Lillard carrying a salary of nearly 60 million they don’t have control of their own first round pick till 2031, they don’t have a pathway to build a contender around him at this point. But the rumbles that you always hear are that just having Giannis is so important to them financially. They’re not going to trade him unless he pushes it. -via YouTube / May 3, 2025
Marc Stein: The whole league is on edge waiting to see will Giannis’ representatives go to the Bucks and say, “It’s time. Move us, hold the auction, and start over.” I don’t think the Bucks want to do that. You could make the case that they should want to do that, that they should see, let’s go out and get the the the largest haul we can get back for Giannis, but I don’t think the Bucks are there. We’re going to see where Giannis is. -via YouTube / May 3, 2025
