The Miami Heat have landed Giannis Antetokounmpo – a two-time NBA MVP and 10-time All-Star – from the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for a massive haul of players and draft picks in a blockbuster NBA deal.
The terms, according to The Associated Press – with the move having yet to receive the required league approval – will see Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis heading to Miami for Wisconsin native Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kel’el Ware and Kasparas Jakucionis.
Milwaukee will also get the No 13 selection that will be made in Tuesday night’s NBA draft, along with a first-round pick swap in 2030, first-round picks in 2031 and 2033, and a second-rounder in 2033.
It ends a wild back-and-forth in the final days of the saga, with the Bucks considering offers from both Miami and Boston for Antetokounmpo, who led Milwaukee to the 2021 NBA title, was on the NBA’s 75th anniversary list of its greatest players ever, is a nine-time All-NBA selection, and is coming off an injury-shortened season in which he averaged 27.6 points per game
