Giannis Antetokounmpo has settled his future for the medium-term as he appears settle on giving the Milwaukee Bucks an opportunity to upgrade the roster around him this offseason. "His future is not going to be tied to the draft," said Shams Charania on Monday's Pat McAfee Show. "His future is not going to be tied to free agency.

"Then after that, after let's say two or three weeks into July, Giannis Antetokounmpo will then have to figure out what is it—do I feel like this team I'm on right now—is it a championship contender?


Seriously, what in the actual **** is he even talking about?

What's funny about this Shams report dropping right now is Giannis has Bucks teammates flying to Greece for team activities and workouts as we speak. Tyler Smith, Ajax, Livingston are already there via their IG stories and probably a few others coming.

Looks like he’s getting ready to ask out.

If Horst can hit two doubles and a triple, I think Giannis is good enough in the current east, to get us to the finals.

Time for a Giannis re-tweet.

You'll see. When Giannis announces his retirement from the Bucks in eight years after winning another MVP and two more rings, Shams will be able to say that he was right about Giannis being "open minded about a future outside of Milwaukee."

I believe Marques said Rollins and AJ were going/there too.

Does Shams do this about other players or just Giannis?

Just Giannis.

Look no further than this interview clip about Jokic and the comments made by their owner. Shams basically brushes it off as a nothing burger. Could you imagine what he would be saying if one of the Bucks owners said that about Giannis?

Was listening to a pod today discuss that Kroenke quote and the room of six Miami Heat fans said they had never considered trading for Jokic because no one had ever entertained the thought that Denver would actually trade him. But Giannis has been their white whale for almost a decade, Pat Riley goes big game hunting, and Ware and some firsts is the kind of Package the Heat go use to make a run at him.

I’m assuming that Giannis tweeting about missing Woj has fueled this obsession for **** Shams to continue his charade. What a clown show, he fits right in with the other countless hacks at ESPN.

I wonder how many days in a row Shams can report on this without there actually being anything new to report on. Does ESPN have a gun to his back making him talk about this every time he's on camera? We should turn it into a Bucks RGM drinking game at this point.
