Heat Get Massive Giannis Antetokounmpo Trade Update From Insider

Miami Heat are seen as a realistic top suitor for Giannis Antetokounmpo due to their roster assets and need for a franchise star, with 17 games played this season averaging 28.9 points.

  • On December 12, 2025, Sam Amick wrote that the Miami Heat are a realistic top landing spot for Giannis Antetokounmpo, two-time MVP.
  • Giannis Antetokounmpo has missed games since December 3rd due to a calf strain, fueling speculation he could be traded by the Milwaukee Bucks before the trade deadline.
  • Miami could offer draft assets and young players including Tyler Herro, Kel'el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr., with Terry Rozier as salary filler in a potential Giannis trade.
  • Acquiring Antetokounmpo would instantly make the Miami Heat a top-tier contender, but Pat Riley's front office must quickly restructure and surrender hefty value.
  • Long overlooked, Miami Heat has risen above traditional suitors like the New York Knicks, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio Spurs as contending teams line up trades.
