Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks seem to be in a stalemate right now. Reports and rumors out of Milwaukee suggest that Giannis and his agents are trying to find him a better fit and leave the Bucks. On the other hand, Bucks head coach Doc Rivers recently claimed that Giannis is very happy with his current team and has never requested a trade.
The Bucks are in a tough spot right now, despite Giannis playing at the high level he has played all his career. They are 10th in the Eastern Conference with a 10-13 record. According to NBA insiders, Giannis has been asking for a trade even before the season started. Amid these trade rumors, 9x All-Star has been linked with a lot of interesting matchups.

One of the possible options is defending NBA champs Oklahoma City Thunder. With the multiple first-round draft picks, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder might just stand a chance to bring Giannis to the mix.
Another possible destination was the San Antonio Spurs. There have been rumors that Victor Wembanyama’s Spurs are expected to “aggressively” go after Giannis. Wemby and Giannis have the potential to be the next David Robinson and Tim Duncan in San Antonio if this trade does happen.
Despite so many uncertainties, another report suggests that Luka Doncic is also interested in the idea of having Antetokounmpo as his teammate.
Luka Doncic reportedly inquired with the Lakers to see if they can acquire Giannis Antetokounmpo. “I can tell you that the Lakers inquired and Luka Doncic himself inquired, trying to see if the Lakers could work out a deal with the Milwaukee Bucks,” an NBA insider reported.
