Giannis Antetokoumpo opens door to potentially leaving Bucks down the road

Giannis Antetokounmpo has been one of the most loyal superstars in the NBA, bringing a championship to the Milwaukee Bucks after 50 years.

The “Greek Freak” made some interesting comments to GQ’s Zach Baron as part of the cover story for the magazine, talking about the future with the Milwaukee franchise and his career.

“One challenge was to bring a championship here and we did,” Antetokounmpo said. “It was very hard, but we did. Very, very hard. I just love challenges. What’s the next challenge? The next challenge might not be here.

“Me and my family chose to stay in this city that we all love and has taken care of us—for now. In two years, that might change. I’m being totally honest with you. I’m always honest. I love this city. I love this community. I want to help as much as possible.”

The Bucks are focused on repeating, after winning the title last season. Giannis revealed he was getting text messages from rival players encouraging him to leave, before signing the extension with the Bucks.

Milwaukee has started this season slow, however Antetokounmpo seems unable to slow down. He is averaging 26.5 points, 11.3 rebounds and six assists through 13 games.
