Giannis Antetokounmpo [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/giannis-antetokounmpo/], the 25-year-old NBA superstar is on every team’s wish-list for next season and rightly so. The ‘Greek Freak’ is often considered to be Kareem’s successor as the next Milwaukee Bucks big man. The reigning MVP’s next stop has been the topic of numerous debates this year. ESPN’s Tim Bontemps [https://twitter.com/TimBontemps?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor] thinks that it is “no secret” that the Toronto Raptors [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/toronto-raptors/] will go after Giannis in free agency. The reigning MVP is having a spectacular season and is en route to win the award for the second straight year. THE TORONTO RAPTORS’ RÉSUMÉ The reigning NBA champs are likely contenders for landing Giannis Antetokounmpo by the 2021-2022 season. Toronto Raptors have made their case as they are in the second position behind the bucks with a 46-18 record. Apart from having young superstars like Pascal Siakam [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pascal-siakam/] and Fred Vanvleet, The Raps also have an all-star point guard in Kyle Lowry. Various sources have cited that Giannis is fed up with the Bucks’ poor playoff history and is likely to leave after this season if the Bucks don’t win the championship this season. Going into the next season, the Raptors will also have enough cap space to make the deal financially viable for Giannis. TORONTO’S COMPETITION FOR GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO Over the past few months, there has been ample speculation about the Greek Freak’s next destination. The Golden State Warriors were the first in the conversation and then the Miami Heat. After losing Kevin Durant in a trade and the ‘Splash Brothers’ to injuries, The Warriors have had an unstable season. The Warriors have the worst record in the league and will probably land a very high pick in the draft. This will make Golden State an even more attractive destination for Giannis next season as Stephen Curry and Klay Thomson will be back. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-playoffs-can-toronto-raptors-repeat-their-championship-run/] Another team that has a shot at landing Giannis Antetokounmpo is the Miami Heat. A big 3 consisting of Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, and Giannis will be a great asset to the team. The Heat also has young talents like Tyler Herro [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyler_Herro] and Duncan Robinson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duncan_Robinson_(basketball)] which makes it a better option for Giannis in the long run. 

The Toronto Raptors is a likely destination for Giannis Antetokounmpo but the
Golden State Warriors and The Miami Heat will not let go without a fight.

The Milwaukee Bucks are owned by Wes Edens, Marc Lasry, Jamie Dinan, and Mike Fascitelli. They play in the NBA's Eastern Conference and are part of the League's Central Division along with the Chicago Bulls, Detroit Pistons, Indiana Pacers, and Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Milwaukee Bucks were founded in 1968. They were an expansion team, along with the Phoenix Suns. Mike Budenholzer is the current head coach of the Bucks, while John Horst and Peter Feigin serve as the general manager and president, respectively.

This marked the first time since 1955 that a Milwaukee based team was part of the <a href="https://www.nba.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">NBA</a>. The name Bucks was chosen despite the name finishing second to Robins in a fan contest to name the new team.
The Milwaukee Bucks made a slow start in the NBA and won just 27 games in their maiden season. The team orchestrated a remarkable turnaround the following season and made it to the Eastern Conference Finals. The following year, the Milwaukee Bucks went all the way to lift the NBA Championship. They repeated the success many years later in 2021, when they won a Championship led by Giannis Antetokounmpo. Currently, they are trying to defend their coveted crown.

As of last year, it was the fastest expansion team in the history of all North American sports leagues to claim the title. They reached the final 3 years later in 1974. This was their last finals appearance to date.
Only two players have claimed the regular season MVP award while representing the Milwaukee Bucks. They are Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (1971, 1972, 1974) and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/giannis-antetokounmpo/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Giannis Antetokounmpo</a> (2019, 2020)

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Who is Giannis Antetokounmpo?</h2>
Giannis Antetokounmpo or the "Greek Freak" is one of those names that have spurred the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/" target="_self" rel="noopener">NBA</a> circuit in recent times. Born in Greece to Nigerian parents, Antetokounmpo began playing basketball for the youth teams of Filathlitikos, eventually playing for their senior team. Following this, the power forward declared himself eligible for the NBA Draft in 2013, where Antetokounmpo was drafted with the 15th overall pick by the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/milwaukee-bucks/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Milwaukee Bucks</a>, a team he has been playing for since then. He wears the No. 34 jersey.

Mandatory Credit: Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports[/caption]

Over his career, Antetokounmpo has been an NBA All-Star seven times. Giannis also won two successive MVP trophies in 2019 and 2020 to solidify his status as a star in the league. After multiple seasons of being heavily criticized for his failure to win a title, the power forward silenced his critics winning his first championship and Final MVP in 2021. In the 2023-24 season, he is continuing his top form, with the Bucks now a force to be reckoned with in the East.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Giannis Antetokounmpo's early life </h2>
Born in Athens to Nigerian immigrant parents, Charles and Veronica Antetokounmpo, in 1994, Giannis Antetokounmpo grew up in a tough environment, with his family struggling to afford the basics. He started playing basketball around age 7, finding an escape and a passion for the sport. By his mid-teens, he had left school to focus on helping provide for his family, taking odd jobs around the city.

Basketball became more than just a game for the young athlete â€“ it was, perhaps, an opening for a better life. That once far-off dream, however, was soon realized, with Antetokounmpo's first-round selection in the 2013 NBA draft.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Giannis Antetokounmpo's wife and children</h2>
Giannis Antetokounmpo fathers three children with his fiancee Mariah Riddlesprigger: his two sons Liam, 4, and Maverick Shai, 2, and his new-born daughter Eva Brooke. He has four brothers, Francis, Thanasis, Kostas, and Alex. Two of his siblings are contemporaries in the league, with Kostas securing a championship in 2020 with the Los Angeles Lakers and Thanasis with the Bucks in 2021.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Giannis Antetokounmpo's career timeline</h2>
Drafted 15th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2013 NBA draft, Antetokounmpo was named to the NBA All-Rookie second team in his first season. Over the next few years, he quickly exceeded expectations, growing into a versatile scorer, lockdown defender, and facilitator all in an athletic 6â€™11â€ frame.

He broke out in his third season, averaging 16.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game and earning the Most Improved Player award. In the 2019-20 season, the Greek had another one of his finer campaigns, putting up 27.7 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 5.9 assists to lead the Bucks to their best-ever record in the NBA. (56-17). 

In 2021, Giannis delivered on his promise by spearheading the Bucks to the NBA title and earning a Finals MVP title in the process. He then went on to sign one of the largest contracts in NBA history, a 5-year $228 million extension with the Bucks.

Mandatory Credit: Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports Over his career, Antetokounmpo has been an NBA All-Star seven times. Giannis also won two successive MVP trophies in 2019 and 2020 to solidify his status as a star in the league. After multiple seasons of being heavily criticized for his failure to win a title, the power forward silenced his critics winning his first championship and Final MVP in 2021. In the 2023-24 season, he is continuing his top form, with the Bucks now a force to be reckoned with in the East. Giannis Antetokounmpo&#8217;s early life Born in Athens to Nigerian immigrant parents, Charles and Veronica Antetokounmpo, in 1994, Giannis Antetokounmpo grew up in a tough environment, with his family struggling to afford the basics. He started playing basketball around age 7, finding an escape and a passion for the sport. By his mid-teens, he had left school to focus on helping provide for his family, taking odd jobs around the city. Basketball became more than just a game for the young athlete â€“ it was, perhaps, an opening for a better life. That once far-off dream, however, was soon realized, with Antetokounmpo&#8217;s first-round selection in the 2013 NBA draft. Giannis Antetokounmpo&#8217;s wife and children Giannis Antetokounmpo fathers three children with his fiancee Mariah Riddlesprigger: his two sons Liam, 4, and Maverick Shai, 2, and his new-born daughter Eva Brooke. He has four brothers, Francis, Thanasis, Kostas, and Alex. Two of his siblings are contemporaries in the league, with Kostas securing a championship in 2020 with the Los Angeles Lakers and Thanasis with the Bucks in 2021. Giannis Antetokounmpo&#8217;s career timeline Drafted 15th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2013 NBA draft, Antetokounmpo was named to the NBA All-Rookie second team in his first season. Over the next few years, he quickly exceeded expectations, growing into a versatile scorer, lockdown defender, and facilitator all in an athletic 6â€™11â€ frame. He broke out in his third season, averaging 16.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game and earning the Most Improved Player award. In the 2019-20 season, the Greek had another one of his finer campaigns, putting up 27.7 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 5.9 assists to lead the Bucks to their best-ever record in the NBA. (56-17). In 2021, Giannis delivered on his promise by spearheading the Bucks to the NBA title and earning a Finals MVP title in the process. He then went on to sign one of the largest contracts in NBA history, a 5-year $228 million extension with the Bucks.

<h2 style="text-align: center">Kyle Lowry 2021: Net worth, salary, and endorsements</h2>
Kyle Terrell Lowry is one of the most versatile point guards in the league and plays for the Eastern Conference juggernauts Miami Heat. While many 0f his peer have slotted in as role players in other teams, Lowry has been among the few who has continued to do it all in the point guard position despite being a veteran.

[caption id="attachment_823453" align="alignnone" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-823453" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2021-11-11T032627Z_1831775805_MT1USATODAY17134846_RTRMADP_3_NBA-MIAMI-HEAT-AT-LOS-ANGELES-LAKERS.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" /> Nov 10, 2021; Los Angeles, California, USA; Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (7) moves to the basket ahead of Los Angeles Lakers guard Avery Bradley (20) during the first half at Staples Center.

Starting off his career with the Villanova Wildcats roster, Lowry in his very first year with the team wasn't that big of a star rather, served as a great role player for the team.

Coming off of the bench, the 6'0" feet guard showcased his talents as a floor general and was capable of working on the defensive end with steals and rebounds. His impressive first season earned him a starting spot in the team.

The guard certainly didn't let go off the wonderful opportunity and established himself  as one of the top guards of the draft class. But size was still a big issue for teams in the NBA. While Lowry was touted to become a lottery pick, he slipped down all the way down to 24th and was picked by the Memphis Grizzlies in the 2006 draft.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kyle Lowry with Memphis Grizzlies</h2>
While Lowry was touted to be a decent point guard, he was drafted by a Grizzlies team which already had a set of underrated stars like Pau Gasol and Mike Miller. With guards like Chucky Atkins and Damon Stoudamire up in the pecking order, Lowry was a mere fringe player for the team.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-825761" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Kyle-Lowry-Grizzlies.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="337" />

But his role certainly got an upgrade in his second season. Coming off of the bench, it looked like Lowry was finally delivering on the promise he had shown in his college. But all of it came crashing down in the third season.

With the arrival of another new guard in Mike Conley, the Grizzlies knew that they had to let go off some players. With a diminished role and Conley stepping up as the go-to guard, a new destination awaited the then 22-year-old.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kyle Lowry with Houston Rockets</h2>
In the middle of the 2008-09 season, the Grizzlies traded off Lowry to the Rockets in a three-team deal. But of change of scenery was not enough for the young guard. With veteran Rafer Alston taking the starting role, Lowry continued to be a role player for the team.

In his second season with the Rockets, Lowry's minutes also ballooned and the guard settled in as the go-to rotational point guard for the team. His true jump, though, came in the 2010-11  season. Taking the reins as the starting point guard for the team, the 6-time All-Star flourished.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-825760" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Kyle-Lowry-Rockets.jpg" alt="" width="1400" height="1050" />

With a great leap in his stats and his overall play, Lowry truly solidified his status as a capable point guard in the NBA. With a solid average of 13.8 points, 6.6 assists, and 4.3 rebounds per game, these two seasons truly showed what Lowry was capable of.

But the guard wasn't pleased with the Rockets and was yet again on the move, this time to the Toronto Raptors in <a href="https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1248556-toronto-raptors-team-acquires-kyle-lowry-from-the-houston-rockets#:~:text=According%20to%20Marc%20Stein%20of,a%20protected%20first%2Dround%20pick." target="_blank" rel="noopener">exchange</a> for a protected first-round pick and Gary Forbes. This move would turn out to be the game changer for Lowry, as he became a superstar guard soon after.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kyle Lowry with Toronto Raptors</h2>
While his initial trade to the Rockets was a step back in his first season, Lowry suffered a slight slump in Toronto as well. Starting off in a new team, Lowry struggled a bit to adjust to his newer surroundings. But time certainly was the key factor.

In his second season with the Raptors, his partnership with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/demar-derozan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DeMar DeRozan</a> really flourished and Lowry put up career high stats all over the board. This made the Raptors a great up-and-coming team in the Eastern Conference and the improvement was also visible in their record as well.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-100448" src="https://www.staging.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/14784891660_e6bde38cd2_o.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="504" />

Ever since the 2014-15 season, Lowry's numbers saw a new high as he, unlike many others, was a late bloomer and was clearly a superstar guard by the 2015-16 season. His incredible form and improvement certainly was recognised by the league as he started racking up All-Star appearances by now.

Constantly averaging over 15 points with decent efficiency and an incredible passing range, Lowry and DeRozan were the lead duo in the league. While the team started to dominate the regular season, playoff success was hard to come by. After multiple upsets in the post-season, the Raptors made a massive trade and decided to break the iconic Raptors duo of DeRozan and Lowry.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-124203" src="https://www.staging.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/486173711-demar-derozan-and-kyle-lowry-of-the-toronto-raptors.jpg.CROP_.promo-xlarge2.jpg" alt="" width="1180" height="842" />

While Lowry was heartbroken with his brother's departure from the team, the arrival of <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kawhi-leonard/">Kawhi Leonard</a> meant that the Raptors had a real chance to be considered a contender yet again. The gamble certainly worked as the Raptors became the 2019 NBA champions and Lowry was a key member in the run.

While many expected that the Raptors would look to full-blown rebuild with Kawhi's departure, Lowry and Co. were impressive in the 2019-20 season as well, making a deep playoff run. But the 2020-21 season was another story. This time, the team in a very long time hit a new low.

While he stuck around with the Raptors for the season, it looked imminent that Lowry might move in search of a second ring. While many contenders were eying a move for the veteran guard, Lowry chose to stay in the Eastern Conference and chose former Eastern Conference champions Miami Heat.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Kyle Lowry with Miami Heat</h2>
In the veteran guard, Miami certainly found all the solutions to their problem. Previously, they had relied on Kendrick Nunn and Goran Dragic as their preferred point guards, but none of them were as reliable as Lowry, who is much well-rounded guard.

His move to the Heat now looks like a great deal as the team now looks like a juggernaut in the East with hard-nosed defending supported by some electrifying scorers. While Lowry is not the star point guard he once was, he might serve as a great presence for players like Tyler Herro.

The Heat currently are looking like a unit on both sides of the floor and have a decent record of 7 wins and 5 losses. While this is just the start of the season, it won't be a surprise if Lowry ends up contending for the second title this season.
