Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the largest European basketball players in history, together with Nikola Jokic and Luka Doncic. Unlike the Slovenian, the “Greek freak” and the “Joker” play on small market teams. From a large market team in Dallas, Doncic continues to Hollywood after the blockbuster trade in which La Lakers -star Anthony Davis was involved.
Per Eric Nehm of athletics on Sunday, Antetokounmpo had this to say about a dream scenario with jokic and European players:
“A European will, I believe, be the face of the Lakers. This is something new for Europe. It has never happened before. … I just love it. Do you know what I want? I want Luka [Doncic] For the Lakers I want Jokic for the Knicks. I want all Europeans to go to all the big markets to see something incredible. This is what I want. This is my dream. “

After the Doncic-Davis swap it seems that every superstar can be moved in the grill of the owners. Giannis Antetokounmpo’s three -year contract of $ 175 million with the Milwaukee Bucks will only start from next season. Nevertheless, he could be moved somewhere else or perhaps ask for a change of environment.
De La Lakers, New York Knicks, Chicago Bulls, Philadelphia 76ers and Dallas Mavericks are among the top five large teams. The Houston Rockets, Atlanta Hawks, Toronto Raptors, Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors are in the top 10, per casino.org.
Giannis Antetokounmpo could go to one of them if he wants to fulfill his ‘dream’ to see Europeans in ‘big markets’.
Giannis Antetokounmpo does not close from a Milwaukee movement after the Doncic-Davis trade
Giannis Antetokounmpo weighed on the deal with head of Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis. The Milwaukee Bucks star said he understood the company in the NBA and owners who wanted to win championships.
Antetokounmpo added players can look for another team to play to chase a title. He claimed that there can be no “double standard” between players and team owners.
The nine times All-Star has closed his comments with:
“You have to do what is best for you and your family. You have to do what is the best/most important thing to win. “
De Bucks, a team with a small market, must consistently build a championship caliber selection around Giannis Antetokounmpo. Otherwise he could shoot Milwaukee for another team, probably a large market franchise, to chase a championship. He just informed the money and every NBA team with that comment.
