"New York Knicks owner James Dolan loves the way his team has been constructed so much that he does not think they need to make a big swing for Milwaukee Bucks superstar and two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo. That's what I think our plan is, Dolan told WFAN on Monday. I talk to [team president Leon Rose] every day and, look, nothing is impossible. I won't rule anything out, but who do you want to lose [in a trade with the Bucks]?"
"But Antetokounmpo is still as dominant as ever, averaging 29.3 points per game, and the Knicks have looked far from the championship contenders that they are being tabbed as this season. They have lost four straight and were embarrassed 121-90 on Monday night, shortly after Dolan's comments, by the Eastern Conference's No. 1 seed, the Detroit Pistons, who were down two of their starters and were on the second leg of a back-to-back."
James Dolan said he loves how the Knicks have been constructed and does not think the team needs to pursue Giannis Antetokounmpo in a major trade. Dolan said he speaks with team president Leon Rose daily and would not rule anything out, but asked who the team would be willing to lose in a trade because acquiring a star requires giving up assets. A potential deal for Antetokounmpo would likely include Karl-Anthony Towns and multiple draft picks. Antetokounmpo is averaging 29.3 points per game. The Knicks have lost four straight, including a 121-90 loss to the Detroit Pistons, their longest skid since December 2022 during Josh Hart's ankle absence.
