Bobby Portis Confident in Giannis Commitment to Bucks Amid Trade Speculation

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis dismissed the speculation surrounding his star teammate Giannis Antetokounmpo’s potential departure from the team.

“I have frequent conversations with Giannis. He’s my teammate,” Portis stated in an interview with ESPN Milwaukee. “Giannis is all about the Bucks. That’s all I can share.”

Reports suggest that Antetokounmpo is weighing his options regarding his future with the Bucks, contemplating whether to remain or pursue a trade. The Greek star reportedly harbors concerns about the current roster’s ability to contend for a championship as he aims to secure a second title.

Portis expressed confidence in the Bucks’ chances, suggesting that such worries are unfounded given the team’s capabilities.

“I mean, what’s the issue with our squad? Why can’t we achieve it this year? The only thing that’s been affecting us is injuries,” Portis remarked when comparing the current roster to the one that won the championship in 2021.

A seasoned NBA player with a decade of experience, Portis has been part of the Bucks since 2020.
