With the Milwaukee Bucks receiving the 10th overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft Lottery, the front office now appears to be entertaining trade offers for their star franchise player, Giannis Antetokounmpo. Here are five mock trades that might just get the deal done (not including the likely two-four first round picks that will be needed as well).

Player(s) traded: Evan Mobley
Why this works: Mobley is an All-Star player for Milwaukee to build around, and pairing Giannis with Donovan Mitchell and Jarrett Allen allows Cleveland to remain a top contender in the Eastern Conference next season.

Players traded: Andrew Wiggins, Jaime Jaquez, and Kelâel Ware
Why this works: Miami was supposedly in the driverâs seat to get Giannis at last yearâs trade deadline. Ware is a young big with a lot of potential, while Wiggins and Jacquez are proven contributors.
Five mock trades have been suggested for Giannis Antetokounmpo, including offers from teams like the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Bucks are exploring trade options following their acquisition of the 10th overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft Lottery.

Players traded: Jonathan Kuminga, Dyson Daniels, and Zaccharie Risacher
Why this works: This is an intriguing haul for the Bucks. Kuminga has had some good performances in a Hawks uniform; Daniels is one of the top on-ball defenders in the league; Risacher has been underwhelming as a former #1 overall NBA Draft pick so far, but a surplus of minutes on a rebuilding Bucks team should give him the best chance to fulfill his potential.
What might hold this trade back?
Players traded: Scoot Henderson, Kris Murray, Yang Hansen, Jeremi Grant
Why this works: Milwaukee gets three young upside players in former #3 overall pick Henderson, Murray, and Yang. Grant can be moved for more young talent or picks.
What might hold this trade back?
Players traded: Immanuel Quickley, Jacob Poetl, JaKobe Walter
Why this works: Milwaukee gets two players with high upside in Quickley and Walter, while Poeltl would likely be moved for more assets. Having been barely ousted by the Cavaliers, Torontoâs front office likely believes they are one move away from being an Eastern Conference favorite.
