Flashy Trade Idea Has Bucks Land Unbelievable Haul For Giannis Antetokounmpo

Bold Trade Proposal Has Bucks Securing Incredible Return for Giannis Antetokounmpo

If the Milwaukee Bucks could pull off this trade, it would be the ultimate deal. While Giannis Antetokounmpo has yet to decide if he wants to leave the Bucks, rumors and trade proposals are already swirling in anticipation of a possible departure.

For the first time in his career, Antetokounmpo has hinted that he might be open to joining another team. As a result, trade scenarios have been flooding in. However, no deal can be finalized until the NBA Finals end and free agency begins, though Antetokounmpo is expected to give the Bucks a decision before then.

Bucks Land Massive Return in Hypothetical Four-Team Trade
The Bucks are aiming to maximize their return on any potential Antetokounmpo trade. Bleacher Report has proposed a bold, four-team trade that would give Milwaukee an incredible haul. Here’s the full breakdown of the proposal:

Toronto Raptors Receive:

• Giannis Antetokounmpo (from Bucks)

• Jalen Smith (from Bulls)

• Jevon Carter (from Bulls)

Milwaukee Bucks Receive:

• RJ Barrett (from Raptors)

• Gradey Dick (from Raptors)

• Chris Boucher (sign-and-trade from Raptors)

• Ja’Kobe Walter (from Raptors)

• Gabe Vincent (from Lakers)

• 2025 No. 9 overall pick (from Raptors)

• 2026 first-round swap rights (from Raptors)

• 2026 second-round pick (from Lakers)

• 2027 first-round pick (from Raptors)

• 2028 first-round swap rights (from Raptors)

• 2029 first-round pick (from Raptors)

• 2030 first-round swap rights (from Raptors)

• 2031 first-round pick (from Raptors)

• 2032 first-round swap rights (top-five protected for Raptors)

Los Angeles Lakers Receive:

• Jakob Poeltl (from Raptors)

• Lonzo Ball (from Bulls)

Chicago Bulls Receive:

• Dalton Knecht (from Lakers)

• Jarred Vanderbilt (from Lakers)

• Shake Milton (from Lakers)

• AJ Lawson (from Raptors)

• $10 million trade exception (for Ball)

• $9 million trade exception (for Smith)

• $1.5 million trade exception (for Carter)

In this scenario, the Bucks would walk away with a solid combination of draft picks and promising young talent from multiple teams, making it one of the best returns they could possibly hope for in an Antetokounmpo trade.

If this proposal were actually offered to Milwaukee, they should take it without hesitation. It would give them the chance to build around RJ Barrett and add additional pieces through the draft.

However, it’s unlikely this kind of deal would ever come to fruition due to its complexity. Four-team trades are rare, and one involving a player as elite as Giannis—who is one of the top five players in the world—is even more uncommon.
