NBA Rumors: The 3 teams with the most options to acquire Giannis Antetokounmpo

Now that the Milwaukee Bucks have been eliminated from the playoffs again, the future of Giannis Antetokounmpo is once again in doubt. Below, we assess the three teams that are most likely to acquire the Greek superstar... should he decide to change teams.

Miami Heat

There have been rumors for a while now that Pat Riley wants to secure the services of the Greek phenomenon, and there are several factors that make it a realistic option. The Heat are desperate for their next superstar after trading away Jimmy Butler this season, and Riley won't rest until he gets one. Miami has a bunch of viable pieces they could send to the Bucks: All-Star Tyler Herro, who had a breakout season averaging 23.9 points and 5.5 assists, was born in Milwaukee. They also have young prospects who could develop with the Bucks, like Nikola Jokic and Jaime Jaquez Jr. The Heat also possess draft capital in three interchangeable first-rounders.

San Antonio Spurs

Who doesn't want to see a Giannis/Wemby duo? ... Besides their rival teams, of course. Pairing Antetokounmpo with Victor Wembanyama would be a defensive nightmare for opponents. The Spurs have the pieces to make it worthwhile for Milwaukee, with young stars like Devin Vassell and Keldon Johnson, both of whom have been averaging around or near 20 points per game in recent seasons. Furthermore, the Spurs have plenty of first-round players.

Brooklyn Nets

If the Bucks are looking for draft picks, they need not look further than Brooklyn. They have nine first-round picks available for trading. Additionally, if they manage to include Cam Johnson, the most sought-after player, in the deal, the Bucks could easily swap him for even more picks or young pieces. The Nets are said to have Giannis as their number 1 priority for the offseason.

Let the battle for Giannis begin. Maybe.
