"As the suitors for Giannis Antetokounmpo begin to emerge, you can't help but begin to like the chances for the Miami Heat to actually pull off a trade for the superstar forward. If things continue to trend in this direction, there's reason to believe that the Heat's long-time obsession with trading for Giannis could end up paying off. Even though Giannis is still technically not on the trade block, the Heat are looking more and more like a viable landing spot for him."
"At this point, there's reason to believe that if Giannis does push for a trade at some point in the next couple of months, or even if he waits until the offseason, that it could come down to the New York Knicks and the Heat. It's no surprise that Giannis has an affinity for the Knicks, but there has also been consistent smoke surrounding the idea that he would be open to a trade to the Heat as well."
The Miami Heat's chances to trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo are increasing as other potential suitors appear less likely to pursue an all-in move. The San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder appear not to be interested, and the Atlanta Hawks may resist trading Jalen Johnson or the unprotected New Orleans first-round pick. Those developments improve Miami's positioning in trade conversations. If Giannis seeks a trade in the coming months or in the offseason, the choice could narrow to the Heat and the Knicks. Miami offers deeper tradable assets, including draft capital and young players, but must still craft a competitive package.
