After a report that the Milwaukee Bucks<\/a> and Giannis Antetokounmpo are likely headed for an inevitable divorce<\/a>, one team emerged as a likely target.<\/p>\n

The Miami Heat<\/a> quickly made sense as potential suitors for the two-time NBA MVP, immediately becoming one of the favorites to land his services.

While we have not heard directly from Antetokounmpo about where he would like to go if he could get traded anywhere, a Facebook post from his mother may have given us a brief clue.<\/p>\n
