NBA fans were stunned when, in the middle of Milwaukee’s rough stretch, a new report surfaced about Giannis Antetokounmpo growing frustrated with the Bucks.
ESPN’s Brian Windhorst put things into perspective, saying, “I can’t emphasize this enough. Giannis saw that move and then was interested in being a Knick. He couldn’t have been more clear about where he felt about the Bucks roster.”
The reaction online was exactly what you’d expect. Many fans saw this as another sign that Giannis might be eyeing the exit.
One fan wrote, “He literally advocated for them to waive dame and get Myles Turner, fake humble man strikes again.”

Another said, “Giannis forced his team to make all these moves and NOW he wants to run away. He’s moving like LeBron”
A third added, “Dawg u could’ve asked for a trade right then and there.”
Giannis is currently sidelined with a calf injury, but even before that, reports hinted that both his camp and the Bucks were talking about his long-term future — whether that’s staying put or exploring a trade.
“Just enough time to find a team”: NBA fans question Giannis’ injury timeline
ESPN’s Shams Charania reported that Giannis is expected to miss two to four weeks due to a right calf strain after leaving early in the Bucks’ game against the Detroit Pistons.
Bucks fans are hoping he’s back soon. The rest of NBA Twitter? Not so optimistic.
One said, “just enough time to find a team.”

Another wrote, “The Kevin Durant situation with Brooklyn repeating itself…”
A third added, “We’ve seen his last game in a Bucks uniform haven’t we.”
With teams like the Spurs and Knicks waiting for any chance to swoop in, Milwaukee is heading into a tense holiday stretch — one that could shape the future of the franchise.
