""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's Sam Amick in a recent interview. "'That's not ... in ... my ... nature. OK? '""
""I am not (going anywhere). 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 wanna win games. ... I'm locked the f- in. I'm locked in.""
Giannis Antetokounmpo has publicly stated he will never ask for a trade and affirms strong commitment to the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bucks are 17-21, narrowly trailing for a play-in spot and a few games behind the Miami Heat. Antetokounmpo and his representatives have held conversations with Milwaukee about the future, yet both sides have avoided a public surrender. Milwaukee has demonstrated willingness to make significant moves to build a contender around him. Antetokounmpo will be extension-eligible this summer and could decline an extension, which would make him available for trade discussions.
