Miami Heat acquire Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo in blockbuster trade

According to ESPN's NBA Insider Shams Charania, the Miami Heat have traded for Milwaukee Bucks star forward and 2-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo in exchange for Tyler Herro, Kel'el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr, Kasparas Jakucionis and three draft picks.

Antetokounmpo was reportedly ready for the next chapter of his storied career and the Bucks finally agreed to part ways with arguably the best player in franchise history. Now, Antetokounmpo turns the page to Miami as he attempts to add to his legacy.
