The Bucks are back! What's worth paying attention to in the Giannis Antetokounmpo offseason rumors? (10.16.2025)

Author: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel October 16, 2025 Duration: 53:04
Milwaukee Bucks reporter Jim Owczarski joins host JR Radcliffe on the Point Forward Podcast, discussing just how much fire there is surrounding the offseason smoke of Giannis Antetokounmpo. Is there really a chance he leaves the Bucks in the near future? What's worth paying attention to, and what's not? Then, the guys discuss the 2025 season, where the Bucks have as wide a variance in possible outcomes as they've had in years. What does Myles Turner add? Is this an AJ Green breakout season? Is Kevin Porter maybe the team's second-best player? 

Music intro produced by Olivia Reiner and voiced by Michelle Rutkowski.
