NBA analyst makes shocking prediction about Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo for next season<\/a> originally appeared on The Sporting News<\/a><\/p>\n

The Milwaukee Bucks have been one of the most interesting teams in basketball over the past few years, and their superstar situation is only getting more intriguing.<\/p>\n

Last season, the Bucks were eliminated in the first round for the third straight season. With another unsuccessful postseason, rumors flared about Giannis Antetokounmpo\u2019s future.<\/p>\n

While Milwaukee\u2019s big swing for Myles Turner appears to have been enough to get Antetokounmpo to remain with the franchise going into next season. However, that doesn\u2019t mean all is perfect in Milwaukee.<\/p>\n

If the Bucks struggle out of the gate and fail to establish themselves as a championship contender, Antetokounmpo might want out sooner rather than later. In a recent Bleacher Report<\/a> article, Grant Hughes noted that Antetokounmpo could be on the trade block at next season\u2019s trade deadline.<\/p>\n

As Hughes noted, Antetokounmpo\u2019s potential departure and trade demand are much more about the Bucks\u2019 shaky situation than the superstar\u2019s desire to leave. While Antetokounmpo has made it clear repeatedly that he loves Milwaukee, he has also been just as adamant about winning another championship.<\/p>\n

While there is no doubt that the Bucks are trying to do everything they can to ensure they can compete for a title, there is no guarantee that their efforts will be enough to secure Antetokounmpo\u2019s long-term future.<\/p>\n

After all of the rumors of Antetokounmpo\u2019s future this summer, it would seem wild to see him find a new team in the middle of next season. Yet, if the Bucks can\u2019t prove they belong at the top of the East, Antetokounmpo\u2019s next playoff run might not be in Milwaukee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NBA analyst makes shocking prediction about Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo for next season originally appeared on The Sporting News…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":171290,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3775],"tags":[7,103,123,14055,102,121,3871,367,6,5034,361],"class_list":{"0":"post-237488","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-milwaukee-bucks","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-bucks","10":"tag-giannis-antetokounmpo","11":"tag-grant-hughes","12":"tag-milwaukee","13":"tag-milwaukee-bucks","14":"tag-milwaukeebucks","15":"tag-myles-turner","16":"tag-nba","17":"tag-next-season","18":"tag-the-bucks"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115049709161372476","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/237488","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=237488"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/237488\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/171290"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=237488"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=237488"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=237488"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
