Summary
Journal Sentinel reporters Jim Owczarski and Lori Nickel discuss their recent work documenting the rift between the Milwaukee Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Lori talks about her multi-part interview with Giannis, asking what he wants, how he feels and his frustration with not getting cleared to play basketball in the final moments of the season. He talked about his family staying in Greece for part of the season and why he feels so strongly about playing. Will this situation create a rift that proves irreconcilable? Jim discusses what general manager Jon Horst had to say and if the Bucks can truly build a winning roster this offseason to pair with Giannis. Is there a scenario where management wouldn't want Giannis back? How is this all likely to play out? And Doc Rivers definitely won't be back as head coach, right?
