Charania indicated that “A resolution is expected in the coming weeks.” As he has ostensibly evaluated the best options to extend his NBA career after spending many years with the Bucks, there are already rumors swirling about his potential next destination.

Additionally, ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported that Giannis requested a trade from the Bucks before the regular season commenced. However, the project, his family’s presence on the team, and efforts to present a new perspective on the roster reportedly contributed to his decision to stay.
