Bulls Vucevic Calls Out Giannis After Windmill Dunk

Merlin sees the moment: after the Bucks beat the Bulls 112 103, Giannis threw a windmill dunk with time expiring and a brief scuffle followed. Bulls center Nikola Vučević said, "I'm assuming Giannis was mad about that report that came out the Bulls didn't want to trade for him." ESPN reported Giannis and his agent "started conversations" with the Bucks about whether his best fit is here or elsewhere, and Chicago was later said to have been approached but not interested. Merlin knows a public dunk and a social post can feed a rumor fire. Milwaukee sitting 13 19 as the No 11 seed makes patience short. If Giannis wants change the market will heat by the trade deadline, but for now this feels like simmering unease more than an immediate earthquake.
