Ian Begley of SNY suggests it would be “foolish” to dismiss the New York Knicks in any trade talks involving Giannis Antetokounmpo, noting that if the Knicks’ season had faltered, they would have aggressively pursued a trade for him over the summer. Antetokounmpo is reportedly open to the idea of leaving the Bucks for the first time, although the team remains optimistic he won’t request a trade. Additionally, the Houston Rockets have shown interest in acquiring Antetokounmpo.
