After losing to the Miami Heat in the second round of the 2020 NBA Playoffs, the Milwaukee Bucks came out of the Orlando bubble with massive doubts about the future of their superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Greek Freak had a historic 2019-20 individual campaign, becoming only the 3rd player to win both the Most Valuable Player and Defensive Player of the Year awards in one season. With the Milwaukee Bucks struggling to reach the NBA Finals from 2017 to 2020, there were questions raised in the 2020 offseason as to what direction Giannis might take to enhance his legacy. There were multiple pundits, who felt that Giannis could leave Milwaukee to win that much-awaited 1st NBA Championship.
However, eventually, just 6 days before the start of the 2020-21 NBA season training camp, Giannis Antetokounmpo put an end to all the rumors surrounding his future by signing a Supermax contract extension worth $228.2 million over 5 years. When signed, this was the largest extension signed by the player in the history of the NBA eclipsing the 5-year $207 million deal Russel Westbrook signed to stay with the Oklahoma City Thunder back in 2017. The extension kept the former MVP with the Bucks until the 2024-25 season with a player option to return for the 2025-26 season.
