Damn it just hit me…
Giannis Antetokounmpo could be Pat Riley’s last whale.
I have a feeling Pat is going to all out on this Giannis build and finally get banner 4.

Melo is the ENGINE that makes these Hornets go
The Milwaukee Bucks are also showing interest in LaMelo Ball, per @TheSteinLine & @JakeLFischer
“A trade for Ball would certainly do that. The Timberwolves and Raptors are the first two confirmed suitors, but league sources say that the Milwaukee Bucks have also registered interest.

Getting the LaMelo Ball trade news from @ShamsCharania in the final couple minutes of the draft broadcast was like getting a prequel scene during the end credits of a Marvel movie. Stayed tuned, folks.
Iman Shumpert has become a damn good broadcaster. He was always charismatic and funny, but he provides excellent analysis in addition to being a great storyteller.
I believe Norman Powell is headed to the Detroit Pistons.
With them trading away Isaiah Stewart, they have cleared up space to sign Powell outright instead of giving assets up to the Bucks for Tyler Herro.
With Powell leaving Miami, it gives Pat Riley the MLE to bring in another talent.
