There was a possibility that the 2025-26 NBA season would've started with Giannis Antetokounmpo on another team apart from the Bucks, where he's spent his entire 12-year career thus far. Trade rumors circulated for months, with Antetokounmpo feeding into them at points, but the two-time MVP decided to remain in Milwaukee to start the season.
There's always still a chance Antetokounmpo could be traded sometime during this season, especially if the Bucks don't live up to the standards the nine-time All-Star sets.
