To quiet down those rumors, James L. Edwards of The Athletic noted that Antetokounmpo is expected to start the season with the Bucks. At the very least, this is finally a step in the rumors dying down.

The Bucks don't seem too worried about it, with some saying they’ve laughed about it, and Antetokounmpo has responded in other ways, too, noting that he misses Adrian Wojnarowski, who was once in the same role that Charania is at ESPN.

Even after the Milwaukee Bucks took drastic measures to improve this year's roster, Giannis Antetokounmpo's future remains surprisingly uncertain.
