The Bucks have firmly stated that Giannis Antetokounmpo will definitely not be leaving the team! He himself responded to questions about his future: stop asking me this question.

On December 29th Beijing time, reporter Shams Charania reported that Milwaukee Bucks management has made it clear to other teams that Giannis will not be leaving.

“I have talked to several GMs who want Giannis. They all attempted to negotiate with Bucks GM Horst about acquiring him, but honestly, he isn’t going anywhere. These GMs told me the Bucks are very firm on their stance; Giannis absolutely will not leave.”

When ESPN reporter Malika Andrews asked him, "Do you want to stay here?" Giannis also gave his reply.

“I’m here. I’m here. I’m here. Stop asking me this question. I’m here. This question is disrespectful to myself and my teammates. I wear this jersey every day. If I said ‘I don’t want to be here,’ it would be disrespectful to the team, the coaching staff, and everyone who works hard to get me on this court. Stop asking me this question. I’m here, I will wear this jersey. As long as I’m here, I’ll give my all, even in the final second of the game.”

So far this season, the Bucks have a 13-19 record, ranking 11th in the Eastern Conference. Giannis has played 18 games, averaging 28.9 points, 10 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 64.1% and a three-point shooting rate of 42.3%. In yesterday’s game against the Bulls, he nearly sparked a major conflict after a windmill dunk during garbage time.
