In this bonus Gyro Step, Rohan Katti makes his not-so-triumphant return and joins Ti Windisch to discuss his initial reaction to the reports about Giannis this week, and they agree not trading Giannis is the best outcome for the Bucks.

It was easy to let the doom and gloom take over seeing Giannis Antetokounmpo hold his groin and check out of the Milwaukee Bucks' loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night, but thankfully we got word from Bucks coach Doc Rivers on Tuesday that Giannis is only set to miss a week or two with a mild strain.  Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti react to the relatively good news before going through all...

If asked to identify the biggest problem player on the Milwaukee Bucks so far this season, most fans likely wouldn't say Gary Trent Jr. While he's not been incredible or anything, Trent Jr. is shooting 39% from 3 and looks relatively similar to the player who shined last season in Milwaukee.
