The trade rumors surrounding Giannis Antetokounmpo have intensified following the Milwaukee Bucks' recent moves in free agency. The Bucks made headlines by acquiring veteran center Myles Turner from the Indiana Pacers and unexpectedly waiving All-Star guard Damian Lillard. This shift raises questions about Giannis's long-term fit in Milwaukee.

In a bold mock trade proposal, the Bucks are suggested to send Giannis to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for promising young players Jalen Johnson and Zaccharie Risacher, along with draft picks. Johnson's impressive performance before his injury, averaging 18.9 PPG and 10.0 RPG, could provide the Bucks with a strong foundation for a retooling phase. Meanwhile, Risacher's rookie season showed potential as well, making this trade an intriguing option for Milwaukee.
