Giannis Antetokounmpo made an interesting statement regarding the possibility of playing for the Chicago Bulls.
The two-time NBA MVP and superstar of the Milwaukee Bucks talked about how prestigious franchise Chicago is and didn’t rule out the possibility of joining the Bulls in the future.
“I think anyone asked that question who plays basketball, if he said no, he’d be a liar. It’s a team that won multiple championships, a team with one of the greatest players, if not the greatest player to ever play this game.
It’s a no-brainer, everybody would love to play for Chicago. Down the line, you never know. You never know how life brings it. Maybe I play for Chicago. But right now, I’m committed to Milwaukee,” the “Greek Freak” told Fox 32 Chicago.

Giannis Antetokounmpo signed a supermax contract extension with the Bucks in December of 2020, worth $228.2M, and his deal with Milwaukee expires in 2026, with the final year being a player option.
The Bulls and the Bucks are expected to be among the Eastern Conference powerhouses that will fight for the NBA championship next season.
