According to Sam Amick of The Athletic, the Greek Freak has "been known to be a dream target of the Warriors for a long time," and this offseason could be their only realistic window to land him.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is reportedly “open-minded” about a future outside Milwaukee and has an apparent bond with Steph Curry.

On Monday, the Dallas Mavericks emerged as a possible landing spot after winning the draft lottery. In theory, the Mavericks could send the first pick to the Bucks (as well as matching salary) for the Greek Freak, which would be an offer no one could come close to matching.

A future Hall of Famer, Antetokounmpo is a two-time MVP, a one-time Finals MVP, a one-time Defensive Player of the Year and a nine-time All-Star. The superstar forward has career averages of 23.9 points, 9.9 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 1.1 steals and 1.2 blocks.

The Bucks do not control their own first-round draft pick until 2031. They have 35% of a maxed-out salary cap committed to a 34-year-old Damian Lillard, who tore his left Achilles tendon in the playoffs. The back end of their rotation is full of free agents. The front end is barren beneath Antetokounmpo.
