A surprising report claims that an unlikely Western Conference team is the âpreferred destinationâ of Milwaukee Bucks great Giannis Antetokounmpo.
While the focus of the NBA world is on the ongoing playoffs that started last week, we are also just a few weeks away from the start of the offseason. And there will be no bigger story this summer than the future of Antetokounmpo.
After listening to offers before Februaryâs NBA trade deadline, the Bucks are expected to more seriously consider trade packages with better offers and more teams being involved in the offseason. However, the 10-time All-Star is expected to play a major role in where he lands. So, figuring out his preferred destinations is just as big a story.
Antetokounmpoâs interest in the New York Knicks is well established because Gotham is a beloved stop in the offseason. The Golden State Warriors were one of the teams that most aggressively pursued him in the winter, and the Miami Heat are also expected to be a player in the chase for the two-time NBA MVP. Those teams are seen as favorites because of their locations and potential to contend with Antetokounmpo next year.
However, this week, a completely unexpected contender emerged. According to PHNX Sports NBA insider Flex from Jersey, the Phoenix Suns are a âpreferred destinationâ for the future Hall of Famer.
