"There will never be a chance, and there will never be a moment that I will come out and say, 'I want a trade,' Antetokounmpo told the Athletic following Wednesday's 120-113 loss to the Golden State Warriors. "That's not in my nature.""
""My plan is to be here for the rest of my career," Antetokounmpo said. "If they don't want me ...I'm not the one in charge. I am an employee.""
""I am not [going anywhere]," Antetokounmpo told the Athletic. "I am invested in this team. I want to turn this team around. I want to play good basketball. I want to be healthy. I want to help my teammates. I want to win games. The last six games we've play"
Giannis Antetokounmpo will never request a trade and plans to remain with the Milwaukee Bucks for the rest of his career. He frames himself as an employee and acknowledges that roster decisions are controlled by the organization. The Bucks have not shopped him and are focused on adding pieces to build around him. Antetokounmpo is averaging 29.5 points, 10 rebounds and 5.5 assists this season despite missing 14 games. Milwaukee sits 16-21 and 11th in the Eastern Conference, prompting urgency to improve performance, get healthy and help teammates win.
