Giannis Antetokounmpo signals commitment to stay with Bucks

Jun 12, 2025 2:32 PM

Giannis Antetokounmpo has started to send clear signals that he plans to stay with the Milwaukee Bucks for the long haul.

The two-time NBA MVP recently responded to a StatMuse social media post that highlighted the players with the highest combined averages of points, rebounds, and assists in NBA Finals history.

Antetokounmpo currently tops that list with an impressive 53.3 combined average, edging out Nikola Jokic, who ranks second.

In his response, Giannis seemed to confirm his dedication to returning Milwaukee to championship contention. On the platform X (formerly Twitter), he wrote simply but meaningfully: “Let’s get back there.”

This message aligns with the Bucks’ offseason strategy, as the organization has been operating under the firm belief that their franchise superstar will remain committed to the team.

Across the league, rival franchises have increasingly resigned themselves to the fact that Antetokounmpo is unlikely to be moved via trade anytime soon.

Currently, Giannis is under contract with Milwaukee through the 2027 offseason, ensuring the Bucks have control over three more prime years of the two-time MVP’s elite talents and leadership.

This long-term deal reinforces Milwaukee’s position as a contender for years to come, with Antetokounmpo at the forefront.
