Doc Rivers says Giannis Antetokounmpo wanted out of Milwaukee but did not ask for a trade.
On Bill Simmons' podcast, Rivers said Antetokounmpo wanted the Bucks to trade him rather than make the request himself, and called him difficult to coach. Jason Kidd disagreed with Rivers' comments on ESPN. Antetokounmpo was later traded to Miami in an offseason deal that sent Tyler Herro and others to Milwaukee.
