LOS ANGELES (AFP) — The NBA slapped the Milwaukee Bucks with a $50,000 fine for comments about a contract extension offer for reigning Most Valuable Player (MVP) Giannis Antetokounmpo, the league said Tuesday.
The fine pertains to recent comments from Bucks general manager Jon Horst regarding a super max extension for Antetokounmpo.
The team is not permitted to offer the contract extension until the summer of 2020.
Asked about Antetokounmpo’s contract situation on 12 September at a town hall event, Horst replied, “The answer right now is we can’t talk and negotiate anything. Giannis, basically a year from now, will be eligible for a super max extension. At that time, of course, he would be offered a super max extension.”
Antetokounmpo won the league’s MVP award in 2018-19 after averaging 27.7 points.
