Both players share the same agent.

As a result, there was speculation that the pair would team up in Miami. Antetokounmpo was reportedly impressed that the Heat extended Adebayo to a massive contract extension.

However, Antetokounmpo ended up signing a supermax extension with the Bucks.

The international standout is one of the best players in the NBA. He averaged 29.5 points, 13.6 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game last season.

In addition, Antetokounmpo won the 2020 MVP award and Defensive Player of the Year award in the same season.

The Heat and Bucks take each other on in back-to-back contests on Tuesday and Wednesday.
