Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future with the Milwaukee Bucks this season isn’t locked in just yet. Word is he’s still evaluating whether another championship is possible in Milwaukee.

With Giannis’ future still uncertain, potential landing spots and trade frameworks are beginning to surface. One such proposal sends him to the Miami Heat.
The Heat have always hovered around superstar talks, and Giannis is no exception. Many thought their window to land another superstar had closed, but if Giannis becomes available, they could still get a shot. That possibility is reflected in a trade proposal by Grant Hughes.
Miami Heat Receive: Giannis Antetokounmpo
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: Tyler Herro, Andrew Wiggins, Kel’el Ware, 2027 first-round swap, 2029 first-round swap, 2030 first-round pick, 2031 first-round swap, 2032 first-round pick
“This deal allows Miami to retain Norman Powell, which mitigates Herro’s loss a bit. If the Heat orient the offense around an on-ball version of Antetokounmpo, they should be able to get at least as much juice out of it as they did when Jimmy Butler, essentially a non-shooter, paired with Adebayo on a couple of Finals teams.
This isn’t the best deal we’ve presented for the Bucks, but it’s all Miami can do. If Antetokounmpo dictates his destination, Milwaukee will have to settle for a relatively underwhelming package—albeit one that still beats the Knicks’.”
