Giannis Antetokounmpo

Every Warriors’ fan loves the thought of Giannis, the MVP of the 2018-2019 season and Defensive Player of the Year for the current season with a high chance of repeating as MVP, in the Bay Area.

Giannis helped make the Bucks the best team in the NBA during the regular season.  While his Bucks struggled to start the playoffs, he quickly helped the team figure it out.

Giannis’ biggest weakness, his shot, is coming around as he’s averaging over a three per game. Still not in his prime, the Greek Freak is seemingly improving on a game-by-game basis, and that may be the most terrifying thing.

Antetokounmpo’s cost in the trade market would be insane though if the Warriors even have the assets to make such a deal. Multiple first-round picks, Klay Thompson, and more young talent, if enough, would be the cost.

At that point, is it worth it? Even if it is, why would the Bucks trade him? Until one of these two stars (Giannis or Beal), don’t expect rumors to hold much ground as they’re just frankly too valuable to their current team.
