Going into the 2025-26 NBA season, Giannis Antetokounmpo has been the topic of trade rumors. While many of those rumors center around the former two-time MVP landing with the New York Knicks, it appears like the Bucks' star is interested in ending his career not just with another side, but with another league.
In a Greek-speaking interview on ANT1's The 2night Show, Giannis Antetokounmpo said that he can play in the NBA for at least six more years, he also admitted that he wants to retire while playing for a Greek club.
The future Hall of Famer name-dropped famed Hallenic teams like Olympiacos and Panathinaikos, as well as Filathlitkos, were he played from 2011-2013 before being drafted by the Bucks.
"I'm 30 years old, I can play in the NBA until I'm 36-38. I'd like to end my career in a Greek team, why not? I don't want to live in the United States. As soon as I leave the NBA, I want to return to Greece.
"I could end my career here, whether this team is called Filathlitikos, Olympiacos, Panathinaikos, or Aris, I'm talking about all the teams now."
This, of course comes on the heels of reports signalling that Giannis Antetokounmpo's wife and kids have moved back to Greece.
