The Milwaukee Bucks have asked for more from teams interested in trading for Giannis Antetokounmpo during this round of trade talks than they did ahead of the February trade deadline, reports Jake Fischer.

The sentiment relayed to Fischer is that the Bucks have been "unrealistic" in their ask to part with Antetokounmpo. Teams fear that meeting the asking price set by the Bucks will leave the roster too devoid of talent to compete for a title after acquiring Antetokounmpo.

The Bucks have found the market for Antetokounmpo to be less robust than anticipated with the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics currently considered the most viable trade partners. Teams like the Houston Rockets, Oklahoma City Thunder, San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks have not entered the bidding. However, the Minnesota Timberwolves circled back around with the Bucks to see if pairing Antetokounmpo with Anthony Edwards was plausible.

The Celtics realize that they can't acquire Antetokounmpo without trading back Jaylen Brown and they are reluctant to offer much more along with their All-NBA wing.

The perception has been that the Bucks are operating as though they have a passable trade offer on the table from the Heat and are attempting to see if they can improve upon it before Tuesday's draft. Miami is offering a package built around Tyler Herro, Kel'el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr. and the No. 13 overall pick.
