The farce has finally ended: Giannis Antetokounmpo joins the Miami Heat.

This has to be the longest trade saga I've ever witnessed. After the Bucks' performance declined, Giannis was practically rumored to be leaving every offseason. The Bucks kept trying to retain him time and again, while fans watched wave after wave of trade speculation. That circus has finally concluded today. From the very beginning, one of Giannis's potential destinations was Miami, and in the end, he actually landed there.

The first major move of the offseason comes from the discarded Trae Young.

When CJ McCollum hit clutch shots repeatedly, becoming the only player to beat the Knicks twice in the playoffs, the most awkward person in the world should be Trae Young. Last season, the Hawks traded Trae Young to the Wizards in exchange for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert. CJ quickly proved his value in subsequent games and the playoffs, while Trae Young only made a brief appearance for the Wizards before being ruled out for the season.
