Bleacher Report said a three‑team deal could land LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo together in Miami and give the Lakers a additional center.
Lakers insiders said a return for LeBron to the Heat remains possible, and Stephen A. Smith noted Pat Riley would never rule it out.
Miami’s new comments on Giannis’ brothers have ignited fan discussion.
Some analysts suggest the Heat might choose veteran players over rookie talent this summer.
The club is scheduled to clash with the Milwaukee Bucks in Las Vegas and is slated to play the Orlando Magic on July 11, according to NBA.com.
