#3 The Heat are planning a move for Giannis Antetokounmpo
After signing Jimmy Butler during the offseason, the Miami Heat are close to being in win-now mode, although it appears that the team also has eyes on the future. The NBA's reigning Most Valuable Player Giannis Antetokounmpo will become a free agent in the summer of 2021, and the Miami Herald believes that the Heat will preserve cap space in order to make a bid for the 24-year-old:
If Miami is adamant about keeping cap space clear, it means that a trade for Chris Paul or Kevin Love is unlikely as both players have contracts that go into the 2021-22 season.
Antetokounmpo has repeatedly stated his happiness with his situation with the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Heat would also face major competition from almost the entire league for the Greek Freak's signature.
