Giannis Antetokounmpo believes as long as the Milwaukee Bucks have a strong postseason, everyone on the roster will get paid.

Khris Middleton and Brook Lopez become unrestricted free agents this summer. Eric Bledsoe and the Bucks agreed to an extension earlier in the season.

Antetokounmpo points to how players on the Cleveland Cavaliers got paid after the Cavs won the 2016 championship over the Golden State Warriors.

“It all comes down to winning,” Antetokounmpo said, via Frank Isola of The Athletic. “If you win everyone gets paid. Look at what happened in Cleveland after they won. LeBron got paid. (Iman) Shumpert got paid. They all got paid.”

The Bucks have been doing a whole lot of winning this season.

Milwaukee has the best record in the NBA at 58-20. All signs point toward the Bucks having the No. 1 seed in the entire playoffs.

Giannis Antetokounmpo signed a four-year, $100 million rookie extension with Milwaukee back in 2016. The superstar swingman will become eligible for a super-max extension during the 2020 offseason.

The Bucks haven't won a playoff series since 2001. That will probably change this season with Giannis playing like an MVP.

Middleton has said countless times he wants to re-sign with Milwaukee. The same goes for Lopez, who signed a one-year deal with the club last summer.
