Giannis Antetokounmpo, the two-time NBA MVP, is joining the Miami Heat from the Milwaukee Bucks, multiple US media outlets including ESPN reported on Monday.

Miami won a battle with the Boston Celtics to sign the 31-year-old Greek who won a championship with the Bucks in 2021.

ESPN reported that Miami will acquire Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis in a deal that sends Tyler Herro, Kel’el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jnr and Kasparas Jakucionis in the other direction.

Milwaukee will also receive three first-round picks, a pick swap and a second-round pick, ESPN reported.

The deal draws a line under months of speculation concerning Antetokounmpo’s future in Milwaukee.

The Greek star had openly vented frustration with Milwaukee’s management for not clearing him to play after suffering a left knee hyperextension.
