Heat Check: Instant reaction to Heat’s trade for Giannis and what could be next

The Miami Heat got it done.

On this week’s episode of the Miami Herald’s Heat Check podcast, Anthony Chiang and Barry Jackson discuss the Heat’s blockbuster trade for two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The Heat dealt away guard Tyler Herro, center Kel’el Ware, forward Jaime Jaquez Jr., guard Kasparas Jakucionis, three first-round picks, one pick swap and one second-rounder to the Bucks to acquire Antetokounmpo and veteran forward Bobby Portis.

Did the Heat give up too much in the deal? How will the Heat fill out the rest of its roster? How good can the Heat be with Antetokounmpo?

All of that, plus other topics, were part of this week’s episode of the Heat Check.

As always, thanks for watching. You can also catch the show on YouTube.
