We have a new NBA insider in town, and he comes in the form of tennis star Nick Kyrgios. Yup, you read that right. Recently, the 25-year-old Australian tennis stud just dropped a massive bombshell as to the future of Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo and his rumored move to the Miami Heat.
Kyrgios says he recently had a friendly chat with the back-to-back MVP, and claims that Giannis Antetokounmpo seems to have hinted at his desire to take his talents to South Beach:
“I just asked him a bunch of questions,” Nick Kyrgios told Michael Chamas of The Sydney Morning Herald. “I asked him straight away if he was going to go and join Miami and then he had a massive smile on his face. Maybe that could be brewing.”
Okay, that might be reading too much into it. This could be nothing, actually. Perhaps Antetokounmpo just gave off a smile of exasperation resulting in the fact that he's been asked this question about the Heat so many times, despite saying that he wants to remain in Milwaukee.
Then again, this could be something, too. Maybe Giannis got caught off guard, not expecting to be asked this question by a guy like Kyrgios. Antetokounmpo's current deal with the Bucks is going to expire next summer, and the general belief is that he's going to be signing a record-breaking supermax extension this offseason. However, until he puts his signature on the dotted line, anything can still happen.
While improbable, it still isn't impossible that Antetokounmpo suddenly has a change of heart and decides to call time on his tenure with the Bucks. Should that be the case, the Heat would definitely be an intriguing destination for the Greek Freak.
