Antetokounmpo s emotions are out of control and demands signings, the Bucks spend a lot of money to buy Zion

Antesco lost control of his emotions after being eliminated in the first round and asked for signings. In order to calm the emotions of the core players, the Bucks management decided to start a trade in the summer. Pelicans star Zion Williams became their primary target. The Bucks currently provide a trade proposal to the Pelicans. According to this proposal, the Bucks got Zion, and the Pelicans exchanged Kevin Kuzma, Pat Connaughton, Chris Livingston, two first-round draft picks and a second-round draft pick.

Since Lillard joined in 2023, the Milwaukee Bucks have been eliminated by the Indiana Pacers in the first round of the playoffs for two consecutive rounds. Both times were related to Lillard's Achilles tendon injury. In addition, Lillard is about to be 35 years old, Antetokounmpo has lost confidence in the team's prospects for championships. In order to keep the Greek monster at its peak, the management must make some moves in the offseason. Although injuries and absence have always been a major hidden danger for Zion, he is only 24 years old and has unlimited potential

And as long as Zion can play on the court, it can bring great influence to the team. Letting him serve as the second choice for Antetokounmpo will reduce the burden on Zion's fragile body to a certain extent. For the Pelicans, through observations over the past six seasons, they should realize that despite Zion's talent, he has only played 214 games in the past six years and has never played any playoffs. Therefore, Zion is not an excellent choice for the core of the team. He should give up him as soon as possible and start rebuilding around young players such as Missy, Jones and Murphy
