BREAKING NEWS: Giannis Antetokounmpo Agrees to Three-Year, $186 Million Extension with Milwaukee Bucks

In a significant move for the Milwaukee Bucks, power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo has officially agreed to a three-year, $186 million maximum contract extension, keeping him with the team through the 2027-28 season. The deal includes a player option for the 2027-28 season, allowing Antetokounmpo the flexibility to assess his future with the franchise as it evolves.

Antetokounmpo, a two-time NBA MVP and the cornerstone of the Bucks’ success, expressed his commitment to Milwaukee, stating, “Milwaukee is where I started my career, it’s our home, it’s where we’re raising our family, and it’s where I’m going to continue to work hard every day to make Bucks fans proud.”

This extension comes after a season where Antetokounmpo averaged 31.1 points, 11.8 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game, showcasing his elite performance on the court. The Bucks’ front office, led by general manager Jon Horst, worked diligently to secure this deal, meeting with Antetokounmpo’s agent, Alex Saratsis, to finalize the terms.

The signing of this extension solidifies the Bucks’ commitment to building a championship-contending team around Antetokounmpo. With the addition of All-NBA guard Damian Lillard to the roster, the Bucks aim to capitalize on their star power and pursue another NBA title in the coming seasons.

As the 2025-26 season approaches, the Bucks’ lineup, featuring Antetokounmpo and Lillard, is poised to be one of the most formidable in the league, setting the stage for an exciting and competitive season ahead.
