According to famous reporter Shams, sources revealed that Antetokounmpo seriously considered his future in the Bucks during the offseason.

It is reported that Antetokounmpo will closely monitor the performance of the Bucks and the trends of the entire league in the new season. Sources revealed that Antetokounmpo is expected to decide whether to retain the option based on the Bucks' start of the new season. The new season is regarded as a success or failure by the Bucks in this season. The first quarter will be decisive for the future direction.

Antetokounmpo has always been known for his loyalty. The possibility of his voluntary application for a deal is very small, and the Bucks hope to keep Antetokounmpo. But if Antetokounmpo becomes a free agent, it will be a huge question whether he will continue to play for the Bucks.

Antetokounmpo's contract with the Bucks has three years left, of which the 2027-28 season is the player option.
