Giannis Antetokounmpo Shut Down Bucks Trade That Would Have Swapped Khris Middleton For Jimmy Butler originally appeared on Fadeaway World.

Giannis Antetokounmpo doesn't involve himself in front-office decisions often but he did speak up against a trade involving Khris Middleton for Jimmy Butler years ago, former Bucks forward John Henson said.

Lillard found a report on X (formerly Twitter) by ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, who claimed Antetokounmpo knew about the Bucks' plan to sign Myles Turner to a four-year deal, and that he was "excited" about the move. To reflect his thoughts on the matter, Lillard responded in the thread with a GIF of Jack Black from the movie Nacho Libre.
