NBA insider Jake Fischer revealed that it has been a "staring contest" for both sides based on the perspective of an anonymous league executive.
“One league executive told me it’s a starring contest. The Bucks are tripling down and saying they aren’t entertaining any trade interest for Giannis until he ask out. The reality is, Giannis ain’t asking out either,” Fischer said.
Indeed, there has been no clear and significant progress regarding the Giannis trade saga despite the non-stop speculations. Past reports suggest that the Bucks will remain operating with the full intention to compete and won't pull the trigger until the Greek star finally asks for a trade.
The Bucks have been struggling with an 11-16 record. Having lost 11 of their last 14 games, they are in a tough spot for a few more weeks with Antetokounmpo still out with a calf strain.
For now, everyone can only wait and see what will be a major development that may occur for both Giannis and Milwaukee.
