It wasn’t that long ago that the rumors around Giannis Antetokounmpo and his impending free agency heavily included the Lakers. And it appears those rumors are set to return now.
Giannis initially shut down those rumors by signing a long-term deal in Milwaukee and winning a title. And there’s been no rumors about his future since signing that contract.
However, his free agency is once again closing in and, one again, the Lakers are going to be mentioned. Longtime NBA reporter Marc Stein reported as such on Monday in his latest newsletter.
