The Milwaukee Bucks' fraught offseason has been the subject of major scrutiny. And that hasn't stopped, even in the dog days of August.
Naturally, everyone's wondering if Milwaukee All-NBA power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo could demand a trade away from the only franchise he's ever known, as he gets further and further away from the halcyon days of his lone 2021 championship.
