Thanasis Antetokounmpo's contract status unclear after Giannis trade

Summary

Following Giannis Antetokounmpo's move to the Miami Heat, questions arise about his brother Thanasis' future with the Milwaukee Bucks. Thanasis is under contract for $2 million, expiring on June 30, 2026, after a season where he averaged 4.4 minutes per game. He could become an unrestricted free agent, potentially opening the door for a Miami move alongside Giannis. Thanasis previously missed the entire 2024-25 season due to a torn Achilles and has been with the Bucks for six of the last seven seasons. The Bucks could choose to re-sign him to maintain roster continuity.
