They don't really have to have an agreement on that anyways. If Giannis eventually wants out, Milwaukee will certainly appease him. It's just that now they're guaranteed to get a good offer for him. We're probably at least 3 years away from that potentially being a factor though if I had to guess. Woj was saying that part of the hold up for Giannis was that he hates that players sign these deals and then just ask for a trade later. If he signs a contract, he wants to fulfill it. But having said that, a few years from now, Jrue and Khris will be 33, Brook will be 35 (and probably gone by then if I had to guess), and the Bucks will have pretty much no cap flexibility (though Khris and Jrue could hypothetically be approaching free agency by then so maybe the Bucks could retool at that point).

Point being, we probably have a 3ish year window to win with the current core and then we'll have to see where things go from there.

Also, Giannis could have just signed a 2 year extension to buy him that flexibility to get out and then theoretically sign a 4 year deal in Dallas, Miami, etc. and he would have made essentially the same amount of money as he now will on the supermax, so he locked himself in long-term for really no reason other than because he wanted to be locked in.
