It has become clear that the future of the Milwaukee Bucks will not included Giannis Antetokounmpo and the news of his impending departure has fueled speculation over his destination, and who might be willing to include the #1 NBA Draft pick in a trade package. The pundits have weighed in with their opinions about the value of consensus the top prospect, Cooper Flagg, compared to the former NBA champ and MVP, and Doug Gottlieb provides the perspective on how tonight’s NBA Draft Lottery could send ripples throughout the league.
Doug Gottlieb: “(Cooper Flagg) is legit! That said, I know what Giannis (Antetokounmpo) is.
