Milwaukee Bucks fans are fortunate to have Giannis Antetokounmpo on the roster. The front office understands that, so does the fan base, and everybody involved.
However, Antetokounmpo has continued to show that he loves Milwaukee, and that's a promising sign.
Despite that, some have continued to state that he might want out, and Alan Goldsher of Sports Illustrated was the most recent to do so. He pitched an idea for Antetokounmpo to be traded to the Chicago Bulls for an average package

“As for the Bulls, yeah, this would all but gut their roster and kill their future draft situation, but Giannis is just 30 and shows zero sign of regression, so it’s possible—just possible—that two seasons from now, when Chicago will have shed some of their lousier contracts (we’re talking to you Nikola Vucevic, Kevin Huerter, and Zach Collins), Giannis—who’ll be at the tail-end of his prime—might be able to attract some useful free agents and help Chicago bring home their first ring since Michael Jordan’s Last Dance,” he wrote.

This type of deal is decent because of the young players the Bucks would receive, but it's also tough to justify only getting three first-round picks back.
If the Bulls were willing to offer more, it'd be a more meaningful conversation.
Even then, it seems unlikely that the Bucks would ever trade him unless Antetokounmpo asked for it.
