Giannis

$500K has been traded on where Giannis lands by the trade deadline of this NBA season at various prediction markets.  

As of late January 2026, there is intense speculation and reporting that the Milwaukee Bucks are beginning to listen to trade offers for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
 
 
 

BetOnline has been offering odds on a Giannis trade throughout much of last season with the following teams in the hunt: 

Miami Heat
Minnesota Timberwolves
New York Knicks
Golden State Warriors
Brooklyn Nets
Dallas Maverick

Shams Charania reported Wednesday morning that the Heat, Wolves, Knicks, Warriors are among the most likely suitors. 

Multiple teams have received a sense that the Bucks are more open than ever to Antetokounmpo offers between now and the deadline, league sources said. However, Milwaukee has indicated to interested teams that the organization is not in a rush to complete a move and is willing to navigate Antetokounmpo's future in the offseason if its believed price point of a blue-chip young talent and/or a surplus of draft picks isn't met, sources said. By waiting until the summer, the Bucks could also see which teams are able to offer more appealing draft picks in June.

The Miami Heat, Minnesota Timberwolves, New York Knicks and Golden State Warriors are among the serious suitors for Antetokounmpo, league sources said.

Sources said Antetokounmpo has informed the Bucks for months that he believes the moment has come to part ways after 12-plus years together, making a trade increasingly possible. The Bucks, at 18-27 and 12th in the Eastern Conference, face significant questions about their future direction, which has led to open and honest conversations between the two sides.

Milwaukee is currently slated to have a lottery pick in the draft.
