While the Milwaukee Bucks did move on from Khris Middleton eventually, Giannis Antetokounmpo helped to shoot down at least one blockbuster swap involving the three-time All-Star.

Giannis once stopped a Jimmy Butler trade, and it may have saved the Milwaukee Bucks from a very different future.

According to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, Antetokounmpo was "excited" about the Bucks signing Turner to a four-year deal, although she didn't know if Antetokounmpo was aware that move meant the organization was cutting ties with Lillard. Chris Haynes added Tuesday that Antetokounmpo was unhappy with Milwaukee's decision.
