Is it expensive? Yes. Giannis is a top 5 player in this league and getting him won't be cheap. He is hitting FA in 2027, but not getting him earlier could mean he goes elsewhere, and the Heat really needs him right now to contend.

The Heat are taking two salary dumps in here to help them get more assets for Giannis. Aaron Wiggins is a good player, but the Thunder needs to get some cap relief this offseason, and him, Dort and Joe are the main candidates to leave. The Rockets send DFS, a first and a second to save 14 million in cap for a player that was basically useless this season.

The Heat take all that and send pick 13, 2 other picks and 2 swaps (so they can trade the 2031 during the season), alongside Herro, Jaku, Ware and Jovic (Bad contract) for Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Resign Powell for 3yrs/80million Sign Bassey and Horford for the minimum

Select Felix Okpara and Nick Martinelli in 2nd round Sign Bavko in undrafted (shooting big

Davion Mitchell / Powell / Andrew Wiggins / Giannis / Bam

Pippen JR / Larsson / Jaquez / Aaron Wiggins / Bassey

Martinelli / Bavko / DFS / Okpara

In trade deadline they can shop DFS with the 2031 first rounder for an upgrade at backup big. Hope they hit in one of those 3 players they get in the draft to not have a rotation way to short come playoff time.

Bucks select: Nate Ament and Labaron Philon at 10 and 13

Rollins / Herro / AJ Green / Ament / Ware

Philon / Jaku / Dieng / Bobby / Turner

Smith / Jovic / Kuzma / Nance / Sims
