Speculations regarding the Milwaukee Bucks potentially trading Giannis Antetokounmpo continue to circulate, driven by uncertainty surrounding the star due to an absence of direct discussions with the Wisconsin team about his future.
As reported by The Athletic’s Kelly Iko, the 30-year-old Greek sensation is still a target for the Houston Rockets.
A scheduled meeting with the Bucks has been postponed, yet franchises with valuable assets, such as the Toronto Raptors and Boston Celtics, are keeping a close watch on the situation. The Rockets remain a viable option as well.

The Athens native is signed through the end of the 2026-27 season, with a player option for 2027-28. His determination to pursue a second NBA championship is fueling speculation about a trade, whether he stays in Milwaukee or moves elsewhere.
Drafted by the Bucks as the 15th overall pick in 2013, he has remained loyal to the franchise for 12 years, culminating in a championship run during the 2020-21 season that highlights his career thus far. Over his tenure, including the regular season and nine playoff appearances, he has participated in 876 NBA games, earning accolades such as the Most Valuable Player of the 2021 Finals and the NBA MVP for the 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons. Additionally, he has been an All-Star every year since 2017.
Despite ongoing questions about his NBA future, the seasoned point forward is anticipated to represent Greece in the EuroBasket 2025 before embarking on his next NBA chapter.
