Summary
ESPN reported Giannis Antetokounmpo's trade market has widened from a Heat-Celtics battle to a three-team race that now includes the Timberwolves.
Tuesday's NBA Draft is accelerating talks, with Boston, Minnesota and Miami emerging as the teams most often linked to the Bucks star.
Milwaukee is reportedly unimpressed with Miami's current offer, while Antetokounmpo is said to prefer a destination that can still contend for a championship after a deal.
That dynamic could help Boston and Minnesota, both viewed as having stronger trade assets and clearer win-now cases as the sweepstakes intensifies.
