Giannis Antetokounmpo was just ranked 5th in the NBA by ESPN entering the 2026-27 season, one spot behind the Lakers&#39; Luka Doncic. Which of the stars is easier to build around?

For now, Kyrie Irving appears content in Dallas, as the Mavericks rebuild. But there&#39;s talk that the Mavericks could work with him to move him elsewhere if he wants.
