Giannis Antetokounmpo's latest comments keep idea of Knicks trade alive
There is also little follow-up or push back. That's kind of the point, right? It's ambiguous, often mindless and unworthy of credence.
With that caveat, let me present Giannis Antetokounmpo's shooting-the-breeze livestream conversation with an internet streamer nicknamed IShowSpeed:
'New York tax is bad,' IShowSpeed said to the Greek Freak.

Bucks 'In a Good Place' With Giannis Antetokounmpo, Team President Claims
Bucks 'In a Good Place' With Giannis Antetokounmpo, Team President Claims originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Before NBA free agency started, there were questions about Giannis Antetokounmpo's future with the Milwaukee Bucks. After a third straight year where the Bucks were eliminated in the first round, many believe Antetokounmpo will ask to leave the franchise that drafted him. Advertisement However, there hasn't been any update on whether Antetokounmpo wants to continue his career in Milwaukee. The rumors started to pick up some pace after the Bucks waived All-Star guard Damian Lillard to sign free agent center Myles Turner. Although Lillard is still viewed as a star in the league, he's expected to miss the entire 2025-26 NBA season due to a torn Achilles tendon. The Bucks want to remain competitive with Antetokounmpo, but having his co-star recover from a devastating injury limits them. Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo pregame against the Cleveland McLoone-Imagn Images On Sunday, team president Peter Feigin was interviewed during the Summer League's broadcast of the Bucks' game against the Los Angeles Clippers. NBA analyst Jared Greenberg questioned Feigin about the team's current position on Antetokounmpo's future. Advertisement The executive played it cool and said this: "We kinda laugh internally, it's where we've been for 10 years," Feigin said. "Giannis loves Milwaukee, Milwaukee loves Giannis. We're at a good place. We feel great about it. It's business as usual." Feigin said that the team is having a bit of fun regarding the speculation about Antetokounmpo's future with the organization. The executive summarized his answer by saying that the Greek Freak is in a good place and the team is excited to run it back with him next season. Since the team's postseason elimination, there have been moments where Antetokounmpo dropped hints about what his next step with the Bucks is. Most of the hints he's dropped are leaning towards him staying.

Bucks stun Nuggets with wild Summer League buzzer-beater
The post Bucks stun Nuggets with wild Summer League buzzer-beater appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Milwaukee Bucks are under as much pressure as anyone this offseason, because if they fail to make marked progress in the Eastern Conference, Giannis Antetokounmpo could request a trade. Ergo, the organization must work feverishly to identify players who can aid its potential rise. Pricey free agents like Myles Turner are not the only ones who fall under that category. One or more members of the franchise's Summer League squad may be of service. Advertisement The Bucks' youngsters and roster hopefuls showcased their abilities and tenacity in a 90-89 buzzer-beating win versus the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night. Milwaukee trailed by seven points with two and a half minutes remaining before roaring back. Fourth-year point guard Jamaree Bouyea sunk the game-winning, step-back 3-pointer from 25 feet out as time expired. Elation filled Milwaukee's Summer Leaguers, a feel-good moment that the team and fans could enjoy after a disappointing end to the 2024-25 campaign, and a bittersweet beginning to the offseason. Following Damian Lillard's release and the constant Antetokounmpo speculation, there is something undoubtedly refreshing about a complicated-free moment. The unrestrained enthusiasm that Bouyea and his teammates experienced by stealing a W in Las Vegas, which does not happen often in that town, reminds people what is at stake during Summer League play. Men are fighting for their jobs and NBA dreams. A hard-fought victory alone is obviously not going to determine roster slots, but it may force Bucks brass to give more consideration to certain individuals. Advertisement Will a key contributor emerge from Bucks' Summer League team? Bouyea, who played five games with Milwaukee last season, is hoping to earn another stint in The Association. Although he shot a modest 5-of-13 from the field, the 26-year-old showed incredible composure and clutch prowess in the final seconds of the contest. He certainly impressed the Bucks Summer League head coach. 'Wanted to get the ball into JB's hands, downhill to his right hand,' Jason Love told reporters, per The Athletic's Eric Nehm. 'Guys executed the play. He's a big-time player. Made a big-time shot.' Bouyea is extremely grateful he was given the opportunity to succeed with the game on the line. 'Coach said for the win, so that's what I tried to do,' the former San Francisco star revealed. 'Like the playground, playing with my brothers when I was a kid. Dream come true.' Advertisement Jamaree Bouyea was not the only one who shined in Milwaukee's triumph over Denver. Chris Livingston and Cormac Ryan each scored a game-high 18 points and Pete Nance posted 13 points, seven rebounds and four assists. This group will look to keep the good vibes rolling when it faces the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday afternoon.

Giannis Antetokounmpo casually admits he's ‘probably' staying with Bucks
The post Giannis Antetokounmpo casually admits he's 'probably' staying with Bucks appeared first on ClutchPoints. One of the biggest storylines of the NBA offseason is Giannis Antetokounmpo and his future with the Milwaukee Bucks. There have been trade rumors surrounding the Milwaukee superstar since the season, and those rumors got louder when the Bucks were quickly eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. Giannis' future is a bit murky, but he has made a couple different comments this offseason suggesting that he will return to the Bucks. Advertisement Giannis Antetokounmpo participated in a stream with a popular YouTuber recently, and the two of them talked about his future a little bit. It doesn't sound like anything is set in stone, but Giannis admitted that he will probably stay put. 'Probably,' Giannis said when he was asked if he was going to stay with the Bucks. 'We'll see. I love Milwaukee.' This isn't the first time that Giannis has made comments like this. Earlier in the offseason, he said that he wants to return to the team. 'The Finals are different; I hope to be back soon with the Bucks,' Giannis Antetokounmpo said in an interview with Brazilian outlet Coast to Coast. Advertisement The Bucks have already had a big offseason as another factor in the Giannis saga was the injury to Damian Lillard. Well, that isn't something that is going to affect the Bucks anymore. The Bucks recently moved on from Lillard, and they spent some big bucks on bringing Myles Turner to Milwaukee. This roster is going to look different next season, and if Giannis returns, the duo between him and Turner has the potential to be scary good. Milwaukee has checked a lot off of its offseason checklist, but the future of Giannis Antetokounmpo is one thing that is still up in the air. Giannis has been in the NBA for 12 years now, and he has spent his entire career with the Bucks. He is supposed to be their franchise star that spends his entire career with the team, but there is a chance that doesn't happen. It's clear that he wants to be with the Bucks, but we don't know if the two parties will be able to work it out.
