Giannis Antetokounmpo is at the center of the offseason storyline that just won't die. The widespread assumption the moment Damian Lillard tore his Achilles was that the Milwaukee Bucks star would ask for a trade.

ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Monday on “Get Up” that Giannis Antetokounmpo is in the midst of “very real conversations over the last week or so,” and that there is “nothing set in stone” about whether he’ll stay with the Bucks or leave Milwaukee this offseason.
