However, prior to that, the Bucks had an interest in trading for another star in the form of Jimmy Butler. That deal would’ve involved Middleton, but according to former Bucks fan favorite John Henson, Giannis Antetokounmpo shut down those trade talks.

Giannis Antetokounmpo doesn't involve himself in front-office decisions often but he did speak up against a trade involving Khris Middleton for Jimmy Butler years ago, former Bucks forward John Henson said.

Lillard found a report on X (formerly Twitter) by ESPN's Ramona Shelburne, who claimed Antetokounmpo knew about the Bucks' plan to sign Myles Turner to a four-year deal, and that he was "excited" about the move. To reflect his thoughts on the matter, Lillard responded in the thread with a GIF of Jack Black from the movie Nacho Libre.
