Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Mavs2021]

If Giannis gets traded it's going to be for more than expirings and a single first.

The only leverage Milwaukee has is the age of Giannis/Kyrie and that they´d waste the 2026/2027 by not agreeing to a deal. From all reports Giannis and Ujiri are very tight as they both grew up in Europe as Nigerian immigrants from humble beginnings. They are virtually from the same tribe too. 

I think it´s pretty reasonable that Giannis could pick the Mavs as his next team. Nobody is trading for him, if they know he´ll just walk in the 2027 summer and the Mavs have the cap space to make it happen. It´s not like we don´t have any assets either.
