Even with no CBA in place and the 2020-21 season’s start date up in the air, although apparently nearing an approval on December 22, this truncated NBA offseason seems poised for plenty of moves mashed into basically a month-long period. Zach Lowe dropped his annual offseason primer, including several knowledge nuggets that offer insight into how Milwaukee may be approaching November and December.
Everything revolves around the Giannis Antetokounmpo supermax decision, which he could sign this offseason and lock in a five-year deal worth anywhere between $220-250 million. That’s a lot of dough, but I’m personally of the belief that Giannis will forgo signing it to see how the front office responds after last season’s collapse in the second round.
