Giannis Antetokounmpo is at the center of the offseason storyline that just won't die. The widespread assumption the moment Damian Lillard tore his Achilles was that the Milwaukee Bucks star would ask for a trade.

During the 2024-25 NBA season, Antetokounmpo once again dominated the rest of the league. He played in 67 games, averaging 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.2 blocks, and 0.9 steals per game, while also shooting 60.1 percent from the floor.

The Milwaukee Bucks are still looking to make noise in the Eastern Conference as title contenders. The team still has All-Star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, which makes the Bucks a threat. Despite losing star guard Damian Lillard, there is a belief that Milwaukee can still make noise.
