Charles Barkley once said that Giannis Antetokounmpo will be the next superstar to demand a trade out of his current team.

*I have sincerely looked to see if that opinion was ever written about and I do not see it anywhere, however he said it on one of the local sports talk shows during the regular season.

So what the heck: why don’t the Phoenix Suns just jump the gun and offer the moon for him now and place the megastar next to Booker and Ayton.

How about six, 32, Milwaukee’s own 2020 first round pick back (it’ll be much better now), Phoenix’s 2021 first round pick, 2023 first round pick, 2025 first round pick, T.J. Warren, Josh Jackson, Mikal Bridges, Elie Okobo, and De’Anthony Melton – essentially, everybody not named Booker or Ayton who can be traded, save for Tyler Johnson.

Nobody wants Tyler Johnson.

Plus, hey: if you’re Giannis and you can’t beat ’em, join ’em!

They could also more realistically trade their 32nd overall pick for Donte DiVincenzo.
