The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as the internet is abuzz with news of the inevitable supermax offer that will be forthcoming for Giannis Antetokounmpo next summer.

In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, we feign surprise at the news that the league MVP will be offered a supermax contract contract extension as soon as he’s eligible, we catch up with Khris Middleton‘s impressive final World Cup showing, and much more.

Did anyone really expect the Bucks to do anything other than that?
