NBA insider reveals 'team to watch' in the Giannis Antetokounmpo sweepstakes

The Milwaukee Bucks have had more success than ever before in their franchise's history since Giannis Antetokounmpo stepped onto an NBA court over a decade ago, but after winning a league title several years ago it could be time for the Greek star to take on a new challenge.

Antetokounmpo and the Bucks crashed out of the NBA Playoffs after losing to the Indiana Pacers recently, and while the drama that transpired between the Milwaukee star and Tyrese Haliburton's dad after Game 5 took over headlines there are now a lot of questions about where Antetokounmpo could end up next season if he leaves his Eastern Conference team.

ESPN's Brian Windhorst says one team that could push all their cards onto the table for Antetokounmpo's services is none other than the San Antonio Spurs, who could look to pair him with another monster near the rim; Victor Wembanyama.

The Spurs currently have a top 10 pick in this year's NBA Draft, as well as many picks other the next few seasons, which could be enticing for a team like Milwaukee if they look to rebuild after trading away Giannis.

The Rockets and Spurs are two teams to monitor for a potential pursuit of Giannis Antetokounmpo this summer, per @WindhorstESPN.

The prospects of having two of the elite big men on the same team would be something the NBA hasn't seen in a very long time, especially considering how well both Antetokounmpo and Wembanyama can also stretch the court with their passing and shooting abilities.
