The big question of the NBA offseason is whether or not the Milwaukee Bucks will trade away superstar Giannis Antetkounmpo.
The Bucks dealing Giannis would signal a new era in Milwaukee and put a bookmark on a thrilling chapter, one that saw the Bucks capture an NBA title.
While Giannis' name will be tossed around in a flurry of trade rumblings this summer, the big market teams should be top options, with each of the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat being listed as some possibilities.
Are they realistic? Do they make an offer for Giannis?
That remains to be seen, but NBA insider Zach Lowe gave some updates on the potential Giannis trade situation during an episode of The Zach Lowe Show.
“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.”
Now, the Lakers and Clippers might not have much to offer for Giannis, but it wouldn't be surprising if the Greek star shows his desire to play for one of these franchises.
Teams such as the Knicks and Brooklyn Nets have also been linked to Giannis, so there are some viable options if the Bucks decide to trade him. But, that's the question: Do the Bucks move on from Giannis?
