Giannis Antetokounmpo will start the 2025-26 season with the Milwaukee Bucks. This news was shared by ESPN’s Shams Charania in a post reporting that Thanasis Antetokounmpo will sign a one-year deal with Milwaukee.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had reportedly considered asking for a trade away from the Bucks this offseason. Antetokounmpo was questioning if Milwaukee had enough to compete for another NBA title.
After a summer of movement, which included signing Myles Turner after waiving-and-stretch Damian Lillard, Antetokounmpo has reportedly decided to at least start the season with the only NBA team he’s ever known. This will be the superstar forward’s 13th NBA season, all with the Bucks.
