Bucks reportedly did not consult Giannis Antetokounmpo before Lillard trade
Milwaukee also didn’t approach their star on whether he would commit long-term if they traded for Blazers franchise player
The Milwaukee Bucks did not approach Giannis Antetokounmpo before they moved forward with their trade of Jrue Holiday for Damian Lillard, reports ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
The Bucks believe their trade for Lillard improves their title odds, while also increasing the likelihood Antetokounmpo chooses to eventually sign an extension.
