It hasn’t even been a week since the Bucks were eliminated from the playoffs but the speculation about whether Giannis Antetokounmpo is staying or leaving Milwaukee has already begun.
Giannis currently has one year left on his contract and will begin negotiations for a supermax contract extension this offseason but things can get awkward if he declines to re-sign with the team.

The Bucks will offer Antetokounmpo a supermax contract when eligible later this year, a deal that could be worth $220 million — about $80 million more than he could get with another team as a free agent in 2021, according to ESPN’s Bobby Marks. But Antetokounmpo has made it clear that his priority is winning, and that’s something the Bucks haven’t been able to ensure.
If Antetokounmpo passes on signing the supermax, multiple sources are adamant that the Bucks won’t trade him. Milwaukee will have to persuade him to stay — and quickly.
After the Bucks were eliminated by the Heat on Tuesday, Giannis came out and said that he wasn’t going to demand a trade this offseason but instead wanted to build a winning culture in Milwaukee.
