Giannis Antetokounmpo is just entering the first year of his four-year, $100 million extension this year, but teams are already sniffing around trade possibilities, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, who went on the Russillo Show Thursday.

Wojanorowski referenced Milwaukee's reported front office issues following general manager John Hammond's departure.

"Milwaukee's going to go through this with the Greek Freak. That day's coming, right? Where he's going to look and say, 'Where is this organization? What are they doing here?'

"You don't think Giannis has been watching what went on there for the last several months? He's watching it. And the clock has started. Everybody in the league is trying to figure out how they are going to get him out of there."

Antetokounmpo, 22, quickly shot down any discontent between him or the team on Twitter.

Antetokounmpo averaged 22.9 points, 8.8 rebounds, and 5.4 assists per game last year, and made his first All-Star team.
