With $146 million still left to play for in his 5-year contract, the Greek Freak is keeping his options open. The veteran analyst thus highlighted that the Golden State Warriors could provide the 2-time MVP with all the answers.

In the latest episode of FIRST THINGS FIRST, Chris Broussard urged the power forward to move to San Francisco. “They had stories written in the Bay Area about Giannis coming to the Warriors,”?he stated, urging the NBA champion to sign for the Warriors. A franchise known for its all-around excellence could be the best possible destination for Giannis.

On top of that, the sports commentator highlighted that the Greek Freak would get the opportunity to play alongside Curry. “There’s no place I would rather Giannis playing than with Steph Curry,” he mentioned. Chris pointed out that the four-time NBA champion could elevate the 28-year-old’s game further.
