""Giannis is going into the last year [of his contract]," said Edens, the team's controlling owner until April 2028. "So one of two things will happen: Either he will be extended or he'll be traded.""
""The likelihood you'll let him just kind of play out the last year, we can't afford that. It's not consistent with what's good for the organization. That's not a Giannis issue. That's any player that's in their last year.""
""This has nothing to do with Giannis and whether he asks out," said one source with knowledge of the team's operations. "It's about who's making the decision on whether to trade Giannis, and I don't think anyone knows that.""
Milwaukee Bucks co-owners Wes Edens and Jimmy Haslam are deliberating the future of superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo. The key factor is whether he will sign a four-year, $275 million extension. Edens stated that Antetokounmpo's last contract year will lead to either an extension or a trade. However, sources indicate that the ownership structure complicates decision-making, leaving uncertainty about who is truly in charge of the team’s direction regarding Antetokounmpo's future.
