Rockets keep an eye on Antetokounmpo! It is revealed that Milwaukee Stone may go to Houston, and the difficulty of the transaction becomes the key

The Houston Rockets' desire for superstars has never stopped, and the Milwaukee Bucks' star "Antetokounmpo" Giannis Antetokounmpo is still one of their most important goals.

According to the latest report by Kelly Iko, a Rockets reporter of the well-known sports media "The Athletic", internal sources of the Rockets confirmed that the two-time MVP winner Antetokounmpo is still an important trading target for the team. However, there has been uncertainty over the past week around whether the superstar can actually enter the trading market and the sky-high chips the Bucks may offer.

report pointed out that Antetokounmpo is "open" to the Bucks who have left for their entire career in the offseason, but the key point is that the 29-year-old superstar has not yet taken the initiative to make a formal transfer request. This means that the initiative is still in the hands of the Bucks.

Antesco just signed a three-year, $175 million maximum salary renewal with the Bucks last October, which undoubtedly adds the complexity of any potential deal. The Greek monster has a very dazzling resume: two regular season MVPs, one finals MVP (FMVP), one Defensive Player of the Year (DPOY), and has been selected into the All-Star squad nine times. His entire glorious career was dedicated to the Bucks.

Antesco's potential trend has also triggered widespread speculation in the league. Just on the 22nd of this month, Bleacher Report reporter Zach Buckley predicted that if Antetokounmpo is traded, the Rockets or the San Antonio Spurs will be their most likely destination. One important reason is that Texas does not have state income tax, which is a huge economic attraction for top stars who need to sign huge contracts.
