"The Miami Heat may really be about to watch Giannis Antetokounmpo be traded to their bitter rival, the New York Knicks. If Giannis gets what he wants, especially now that he's discussing his future with the Milwaukee Bucks, the Knicks probably have a clear path toward acquiring Giannis. And there may not be much that the Heat can do. The recent reporting suggests that Giannis wanted to be traded to the Knicks this past offseason, but New York didn't feel the need"
"Now that there are rumblings that Giannis is open to a trade again, the Knicks are likely to be at the top of his preferred landing spots. If there's any solace that a team like the Heat could be looking for, it's that, according to ESPN's Shams Charania, Giannis could be open to playing for other teams beyond just the Knicks. That's where a team like Miami can find a sliver of hope."
"Still, I'd have to imagine that the Knicks would have to be considered the overwhelming favorites to land Giannis. Assuming that he still wants to play in New York, they'd be absolutely foolish to fumble this situation for a second time. They can't seemingly say no twice to Giannis, right? The Heat would certainly be one of the teams hoping for that to happen."
Giannis Antetokounmpo has discussed his future with the Milwaukee Bucks and sought a trade to the New York Knicks last offseason, but New York declined to make a roster-gutting offer. Rumblings indicate Giannis may be open to a trade again, with the Knicks likely his preferred landing spot. Multiple teams, including the Miami Heat, face uphill climbs to compete for him. ESPN's Shams Charania noted Giannis could consider teams beyond the Knicks, offering other teams a slim window of hope. The Knicks would be overwhelming favorites if Giannis still wants New York, and the Heat would want a chance to present a top offer.
