Marques Johnson on relationship between Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bucks: ‘It is as toxic as it appears’

What do you make of what’s going on with the Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo? Marques Johnson: “It is as toxic as it appears. It’s just a bad situation. Doc Rivers talked about it. I’m not speaking out of turn. He talked about going public about the fact that Giannis was healthy enough to play and the team was holding him back. I didn’t like that part about it. With Giannis, you read so many things about it. But the bottom line is that somebody has to be above all of this. Somebody has to be the bigger entity in this. He has meant too much to the franchise, to the city, and to the game of basketball right now to have to wallow in all of this negativity and morass of negativity. It’s too messy right now. So right now, he wants to play on the same court with his two other brothers. I say, ‘Let him do it.’ He’s done enough.”
