The Brooklyn Nets have not abandoned their efforts to acquire Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, according to a report published on April 8, 2026, by the New York Post.
The story states that Brooklyn’s front office continues to explore trade scenarios for the two-time NBA Most Valuable Player. While no agreement is imminent, team officials remain interested in bringing the 6-foot-11 forward to Barclays Center.
Antetokounmpo, 31, is under contract with Milwaukee, meaning any deal would require the Bucks’ approval. The Post report did not detail which players or draft picks the Nets might include in an offer.
Brooklyn has pursued Antetokounmpo in previous off-seasons without success. The latest indication suggests the franchise still views the seven-time All-Star as a potential cornerstone alongside its current roster.
