The Heat and Celtics have emerged as the two-team race for Giannis Antetokounmpo, with both teams engaged in the most advanced talks with Milwaukee, per @TheSteinLine
Miami’s known offer includes Tyler Herro, Kel’el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr., and the No. 13 pick.
Boston’s package is less clear, but Jaylen Brown is widely viewed around the league as the likely centerpiece, with additional players and draft compensation expected to be involved.
The Bucks are expected to make a decision around the NBA Draft.
