Miami Heat Could Get More Than Just Giannis in a Trade & the Biggest Giannis Hint Yet

About this episode

Wes Goldberg and David Ramil discuss the implications of a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo trade for the Miami Heat, including the possibility of Bobby Portis being part of the deal and the team's draft strategy.

The Giannis Antetokounmpo sweepstakes may have just delivered another clue for Miami Heat fans. Wes Goldberg and David Ramil react to reporting from AP’s Tim Reynolds suggesting that Bobby Portis could be included in a Giannis trade package. Would Portis make sense in Miami? Could he help soften the blow of losing depth in a blockbuster deal, or would the Heat prefer a third team get involved? Then, the guys discuss a fascinating detail from Ira Winderman’s latest reporting. The Heat continue scouting draft prospects while refusing to clarify whether they even expect to keep the No. 13 pick. Is that just standard front-office procedure, or a sign that Miami genuinely believes a Giannis trade remains possible? Plus, the Cookie Gang mailbag weighs in on the biggest risks of a Giannis deal, including the possibility that Kel’el Ware develops into an All-NBA player elsewhere. Wes and David also evaluate a three-team trade idea that could help Miami keep Ware while still making a run at Giannis.
