The trade deadline is behind us, and Giannis is still here! (02.06.2026)

About this episode

The episode discusses the Bucks' actions at the trade deadline and the implications for Giannis Antetokounmpo's future with the team.

Bucks reporter Jim Owczarski and host JR Radcliffe look at what the Bucks did at the trade deadline, which wasn't all that much. Notably, Giannis Antetokounmpo is still here, but what are the odds he gets moved in the offseason? Does the national media preoccupation with moving Giannis create a tangible negative impact? What about the moves Milwaukee did make? How seriously will Milwaukee pursue wins in the home stretch once Giannis is healthy?
