The inclusion of Jimmy Butler has brought new life to the Golden State Warriors' season. From struggling with consistent losses to picking up the winning momentum, the Warriors have suddenly become a force to be reckoned with. They are 6-1 in the last seven games and should they continue to bag wins then a deeper run in the offseason could be in the offing. However, the decision-makers in the franchise seemingly haven't become complacent after bringing in Butler and have set their sight on Milwaukee Bucks' star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Golden State Ready to Pursue Giannis Antetokounmpo
As the Warriors' talisman, Stephen Curry is at the fag end of his career, the franchise is apparently ready to travel to an extent to make his final years as a Warrior count.
According to a report published by Bleacher Report, the Golden State Warriors are willing to pursue Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo in the offseason. The two-time MVP, who is currently averaging exceptional figures of 31 points, 12 rebounds, and 5.8 assists per game, could make the Warriors' prospects immensely better and also form a deadly combination with Curry and Butler.
"Antetokounmpo has fascinated this franchise for years, and he might have reasons to look around if Milwaukee, which has one series win to show for the past three seasons, can't reverse its playoff misfortunes," wrote B/R's Zach Buckley. The Bucks' recent playoff struggles could make Giannis open to exploring new opportunities, and the Warriors' dynamic system might be the perfect fit for his skill set.

Golden State's focus on ball movement and three-point shooting could establish Giannis Antetokounmpo perfectly in the whole setup. With Curry's immaculate shooting range and Butler's unparalleled versatility, an inclusion of Giannis will make Warriors side world beaters and top contenders for the Larry O'Brien trophy.
