Stop me if you've heard this before: An NBA superstar may force his way out if his team doesn't find ways to improve around him.
In a league seemingly run by the players, Giannis Antetokounmpo may be the next star player on the move after sources close to the All-Star say the Greek Freak is "open-minded about exploring whether his best long-term fit is remaining in Milwaukee or playing elsewhere."
With news surfacing of a 'mutual interest' between Antetokounmpo and the Toronto Raptors, the Giannis Antetokounmpo next team odds are on the move ahead of the 2025-26 season.
Join me as I break down the NBA odds and possible landing spots for the 2025-26 season.

Where will Giannis Antetokounmpo play next year?
The favorite
Milwaukee Bucks
Giannis Antetokounmpo will be entering his 13th NBA season next year, and he's come a long way since making his debut.
He's put in the work, endeared himself to the Milwaukee faithful, and perhaps more importantly, brought the franchise an NBA Title in 2021. He's done it all and then some for the Milwaukee Bucks.
However, after three straight frustrating first-round exits, the Greek Freak may be looking for a way out.
The one benefit the Bucks have over every other team that will be vying for his services is that they're all he knows.
The odds give the Bucks a 58.33% chance of keeping Antetokounmpo, and with a little roster upgrade, they can tug at his heartstrings and keep him in the Midwest.
The contender
Toronto Raptors
The Toronto Raptors are said to be actively pursuing a significant offseason acquisition. Whether they land the big fish or not, just trying is good enough for this fan base.
According to reports, disgruntled Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo and the club have mutual interest, which could see a massive powershift in the Eastern Conference:

Some would be quick to dismiss this rumour and ask why Giannis would leave Milwaukee for Toronto.
For starters, Antetokounmpo has grown increasingly frustrated with the direction the Bucks are going, with three straight first-round playoff exits.
Still in his prime at 30, the Greek Freak will demand a more competitive environment to pursue another title, and quite frankly, the East is a bit easier than the West.
The Raptors also possess the assets needed to facilitate a trade.
Throw in the longstanding relationship with Raptors president Masai Ujiri, and the Raptors may have the perfect lure to hook the big fish they so desperately seek.
The darkhorse
Brooklyn Nets
