Giannis Antetokounmpo formally says goodbye to the Milwaukee Bucks after his trade to the Miami Heat becomes official.

Winnipeg Free Press likewise highlights Giannis’s parting words, which emphasize his long-term connection to the Bucks and their community. Both accounts present the farewell as a direct response to the trade’s completion, with Giannis looking ahead to his new chapter in Miami while still addressing supporters in Milwaukee. The reports do not introduce new on-court details, focusing instead on the emotional message accompanying the official end of his Bucks tenure.
