Warriors unlikely to include Jimmy Butler in a potential trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Despite Golden State Warriors star Jimmy Butler being suggested as one of the main assets in a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo trade, the latest developments suggest he is more likely to remain with the Warriors.

"We've heard further strong indications that the Warriors' pursuit of Antetokounmpo is unlikely to involve Jimmy Butler's contract after Butler sustained a season-ending knee tear on Jan. 19," The Stein Line reported.
This likely means the Warriors would be more inclined to include Draymond Green in a potential deal, as he has reportedly been made available in trade talks.
The Milwaukee Bucks are reportedly seeking blue-chip young talent and/or a surplus of draft picks in exchange for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
However, the Bucks are not rushing their decision and are expected to hold out for maximum value for their franchise superstar, with an asking price already revealed.
