Exactly.
Not to mention, the Bucks at the time was considered as reaching for an extremely raw prospect in Giannis at the time with the 15th pick, and Nikola was a second rounder for crying out loud. It's extremely rare for franchises to turn their team around by drafting a star player outside of the lottery, let alone a future MVP and generational players.
The Raptors were already a very solid team, a team which were in the playoffs year after year, before taking a gamble on Kwahi a one year rental, which worked out for them as they secured a championship.
Also, you could argue that the Bucks have underachieved while having Giannis on the team, and have only made it worse by trading a lot for an aging star player, and not having enough youth throughout the roster. And the Nuggets are still TBD, let's see how they continue to do in the next few years.
