The Milwaukee Bucks might move on from superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo once and for all.

Antetokounmpo is ready to play for a new team, and the Bucks are now “starting to listen” to potential trade offers for the superstar.

Now, another team has emerged as a team on Antetokounmpo’s “radar,” and that is the Philadelphia 76ers, according to NBA insiders Jake Fischer and Marc Stein.

Among our many items: Philadelphia has not contacted Milwaukee about a possible Antetokounmpo deal, but sources say the prospect of teaming up with Tyrese Maxey — who, like Giannis, works with prominent NBA trainer Drew Hanlen — does have the 76ers on Antetokounmpo's radar. https://t.co/4fO8BiZ0tn

Maxey and Antetokounmpo both work with well-known NBA trainer Drew Hanlen, so there is a connection there.

As of now, the 76ers have not made an offer for the Bucks star, but that could change quickly with the NBA trade deadline approaching on Feb. 5.

The Golden State Warriors are another team that has been linked to a trade for the Bucks’ superstar, but Fischer and Stein wrote that no team has been “classified as firmly in the lead to acquire Antetokounmpo.”

The 76ers are 25-21 entering Thursday and firmly in the Eastern Conference playoff picture for the time being. Adding a player such as Antetokounmpo to the fold would be a massive boost, even with him being out for the next 4-to-6 weeks due to a calf strain.
