Giannis Antetokounmpo might not say anything about his near future but he’s been very active on social media and for his former Milwaukee Bucks teammate, that is already a response.

The Greek Freak’s future is being speculated intensely on social media by fans and so-called pundits. They’re saying he is considering playing somewhere else with their dubious sources.
People close to him already said explicitly that he does not plan to go and play for another city. One of them is Patrick Beverley saying the Greek Freak is a loyal person.
“He’s loyal. We speak about loyalty when it comes to basketball … It’s much bigger than that [for Giannis]. A team, you know, got his family to come to the United States,” he said.
Now, with the two-time MVP being visible on social media through his own Q&A on X and being in Milwaukee for a golf session, PatBev has another conclusion. His former teammate is trolling everyone.
“Giannis is trolling the internet,” the veteran point guard on X.

He also analyzed how it would be wrong for the Bucks to go young by trading Antetokounmpo away.
“You can’t have coach Doc Rivers start all over again. That’s not it. He came there to replace [former coach Adrian] Griffin. Take them deep in the playoffs.”

Giannis saw PatBev’s X post and validated his former point guard’s take.

Antetokounmpo is just in good spirit these days. He generously gave his time to fans through a Q&A that left some hint about his feelings about the Bucks somehow.

Reports say he will have a meeting with the Bucks front office soon.
