"According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst, the Heat are reportedly trying to recruit a third (or fourth) team in an attempt to add more draft capital to their offer for Giannis. And the Heat's chances of landing Giannis before tomorrow's NBA Trade Deadline could very much depend on whether Miami is successful in their pursuits or not."
"While the Heat may not have the best offer for Giannis at the moment, they don't have the worst. And some of that ground could certainly be made up if the Heat could find a path to add another first-round pick or two to their package. Whether the Heat will be able to make that happen before the trade deadline is anyone's guess, but they're certainly trying."
"After that, the Bucks likely told the Heat to try to shop Tyler Herro and/or Andrew Wiggins to opposing teams to find additional first-round picks. Right now, the Heat can only legally trade two. But if they could flip Wiggins and/or Herro into one or two more, there's a better chance this deal gets done."
The Milwaukee Bucks requested more draft capital in their counteroffer for Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Miami Heat are attempting to recruit a third or fourth team to add draft picks to their proposal. The Heat's ability to acquire Giannis before the trade deadline hinges on securing additional first-round selections. Milwaukee may accept prospects like Kel'el Ware, Kasparas Jakucionis, Pelle Larsson, and salary fillers while urging Miami to convert Tyler Herro or Andrew Wiggins into extra picks. The Heat can currently trade only two first-rounders, so flipping Herro or Wiggins into one or two more would improve the deal's chances.
