Giannis Antetokounmpo going to the Miami Heat is the big story, but there were a lot of moving parts in the biggest trade of the summer.
The Greek Freak was always going to command a mammoth trade package.
The Bucks get Tyler Herro , Kel'el Ware, Jaime Jaquez Jr. , Kasparas Jakučionis, three first-round picks (No. 13 in 2026, 2031, 2033), a 2030 first-round pick swap and a 2033 second-round pick, while also sending Bobby Portis to Miami.

Jaquez has played his entire NBA career in Miami. A California native, he is used to the sunny southern states, so being hauled off to Wisconsin represents a significant change for the 25-year-old.
He was playing a pick-up game when the news broke, and his instant reaction was captured and posted to X .
It's hard to make out everything he said in the clip, but his first words tell the story of how this news will have hit.
He said: 'Damn bro.'
Jaquez averaged just over 15 points last season, along with 5.0 rebounds and 4.7 assists on decent efficiency — respectable numbers from the Mexican-American wing.
Whatever his feelings about the change of scenery, he will be aiming to improve on those numbers in a more prominent role for the new-look Bucks.
