The Milwaukee Bucks are down bad to begin the 2024-25 season, which has trade buzz surrounding Giannis Antetokounmpo. But, the Houston Rockets won’t be one of those teams to pursue The Greek Freak.

The 10-5 Rockets are committed to their young core and have no interest in pulling off a blockbuster deal. Via Kelly Iko:

“The Rockets are not interested in breaking up their core for Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, sources tell The Athletic. Houston, sitting at 10-5 and a game out of first in the West, remains focused on developing its young players as a collective.”

Houston is playing well, with Jalen Green and Alperen Sengun leading the way. While Giannis would certainly help, they’d have to include at least a couple of their young pieces to make a trade happen.

More to come.
