The Milwaukee Bucks' decision to waive Damian Lillard may have displeased Giannis Antetokounmpo as the superstar reportedly considers whether he wants to remain with the team going forward.

The Bucks have consistently gone all-in around Giannis to keep him happy. They did it first with the Jrue Holiday trade, and that resulted in a championship. They did it again with the Lillard trade, and that was a huge bust. This is another bold move that will cost the Bucks for years to come, but if it keeps Giannis in town, it’s worth it.

The superstar was “not pleased” with Milwaukee’s decision to waive Lillard in order to sign Myles Turner, NBA Insider Chris Haynes reported Tuesday on X. “He just didn’t like how it was handled,” Haynes added during a Tuesday appearance on NBA TV.
