The Miami Heat are expected to revamp their roster after an embarrassing opening-round sweep against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Fans are glued to trade rumors, looking at any possible star to bring to South Florida. Among these superstars is Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is now reportedly open to exploring outside options this offseason.

“The two-time NBA MVP has not made any firm decisions on his Bucks future after the franchise’s third consecutive postseason exit in the first round, but for the first time in his career, Antetokounmpo is open-minded about exploring whether his best long-term fit is remaining in Milwaukee or playing elsewhere,” ESPN’s Shams Charania wrote Monday morning.

Others are already pessimistic about the Heat’s chances, given their recent track record with superstar free agency. They also may not have enough to acquire the two-time MVP.

“Y’all ready for the heat wait on Giannis gimmick to just not do anything significant after he stays or we get outbid,” one user tweeted.

Milwaukee’s early exit adds to a long list of playoff failures in the Antetokounmpo era. The Greek Freak’s individual dominance has not translated to postseason success. Since their championship run, the Bucks have won just one playoff series. The team has dealt with injuries to stars like Khris Middleton and Damian Lillard, but the inability to recuperate each postseason may finally drive Antetokounmpo away.
