I CAN’T BELIEVE HE IS GOING: Milwaukee Bucks Power Forward Giannis Antetokounmpo Submits Resignation Letter to the Head of… the City?

In a move that has left fans, teammates, and even local government officials completely baffled, Milwaukee Bucks superstar power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo has reportedly submitted a “resignation letter” — not to the team, not to the NBA — but to the City of Milwaukee itself.

The shocking document, hand-delivered to City Hall in a glitter-covered folder labeled “Official Goodbye 💔,” was addressed to “The Honorable People of Milwaukee, and also Steve (you know who you are).” Sources say the letter was signed with a Sharpie and a single teardrop emoji.

“I can’t believe he’s going,” said lifelong Bucks fan and local barber Tony “Clipz” Martinez, who canceled all his afternoon appointments upon hearing the news. “He brought us a championship, a million highlights, and like, ten years of loyalty. Now he’s resigning like he’s a mayor or something?”

Wait… Resigning From What, Exactly?

That’s the big question.

In his letter — which has not yet been made public but has been heavily paraphrased by an unnamed intern in the mayor’s office — Giannis reportedly wrote:

“I have carried Milwaukee on my back like a good son carries groceries for his mother. But now, it is time. I resign from being Milwaukee’s unofficial superhero. Please find another tall Greek man with freakish athleticism to represent the city.”

The Bucks organization was reportedly blindsided. Team GM Jon Horst was seen pacing the Fiserv Forum hallways muttering, “You can’t resign from a city. That’s not how contracts work.”

Fans React With Emotions and Memes

Within minutes of the news breaking, #GiannisResigns began trending on X (formerly Twitter). Some fans flooded the streets in disbelief, while others turned to memes for comfort — with one viral post showing Giannis Photoshopped into a scene from The Office, handing in his resignation to Michael Scott.

Milwaukee’s mayor, Cavalier Johnson, issued a public statement urging calm:

“We thank Giannis for his emotional service to the spirit of Milwaukee, but rest assured — he still plays for the Bucks. Probably. I think.”

So… Is He Actually Leaving?

As of now, no official trade request or contract termination has been submitted to the NBA or the Bucks. In fact, sources close to Giannis claim he was just “feeling things” after a bad game of Uno on the team plane.

“He lost to Bobby Portis four times in a row,” said an anonymous teammate. “Next thing we know, he’s writing poetry about ‘freedom from expectation.’ You know how he gets.”

What’s Next?

While the “resignation” may be symbolic, fans are taking no chances. Local businesses have launched campaigns to “Keep the Freak,” with discounts, billboards, and one particularly emotional billboard that simply reads:
