Giannis Antetokounmpo free agency: Could there be a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade?

Throughout the NBA 2019-2020 season, reports have hinted at various teams wanting to acquire the reigning NBA MVP. As per reports, the Golden State Warriors, New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers are teams interested in signing the Bucks star. However, a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade is unlikely if the Bucks win the 2019-20 championship.

During an interview, Giannis stated that he will stay with the Bucks if they continue to win. The Warriors, who were at the bottom of the league this season reportedly want to trade Andrew Wiggins for the 'Greek Freak'. There are also reports about Miami Heat being interested in Giannis. Recent reports have stated that NBA franchises like the Knicks believe that hiring former Bucks coach Jason Kidd could be their key to landing the 25-year-old NBA star. Giannis' four-year contract with the Bucks will end after the 2020-21 season, which will make him a free agent.
