Darren Wolfson: “Let’s not forget, Phil, Giannis has the hammer because he’s essentially in a contract year. There’s that player option, but wherever he goes, he’s signing an extension. I could certainly concoct a great package that the Portland Trail Blazers could put together for Giannis. But if Giannis through his representation signals to the Blazers, I’m not signing a contract extension, you’re not giving up Scoot Henderson and a million draft picks. You’re just not doing that. The word is, going back to February, Giannis has interest in a few places. I was told, I was led to believe that Minnesota is one of those places, that there is enough intrigue, Giannis teaming up with Anthony Edwards. So yes, I absolutely foresee Tim Connelly re-engaging the Bucks, maybe already has.”
