It has been a busy offseason for Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks<\/a>, though not because of the nonstop trade speculation that continues to follow him.<\/p>\n

The Greek Freak spent a busy stretch of his offseason away from basketball, making appearances at several major global sporting events. Giannis Antetokounmpo was recently at the Champions League Final<\/a> in Hungary, where he even showed off his football skills during a friendly match at Pusk\u00e1s Arena.<\/p>\n

He then shifted his attention to motorsport on Sunday, attending the Monaco Grand Prix, where he appeared excited to wave the chequered flag at the conclusion of the race.<\/p>\n

Multiple franchises are expected to monitor his situation closely and explore the possibility of a trade, including the Boston Celtics<\/a>, Miami Heat<\/a>, Los Angeles Lakers<\/a>, Oklahoma City Thunder<\/a>, Cleveland Cavaliers<\/a>, and Orlando Magic among others.<\/a><\/p>\n

Giannis is making the most of his offseason by experiencing the world\u2019s biggest sporting events rather than stressing over trade rumors.<\/p>\n
