However, Antetokounmpo was up for an extension this past offseason, and he gave the Bucks until 11:59 p.m. ET Monday night to get something done, per ESPN.
Bucks General Manager Jon Horst and the All-Star’s agent, Alex Saratsis, reportedly met in Chicago on Sunday and worked through the max extension details, which were finalized on Monday.
