The Utah Jazz's season isn't going as planned, but the Miami Heat's isn't either. If the Giannis Antetokounmpo era doesn't take off down in South Beach, Utah should look into adding him if they get the chance.

Writer Matt John argues that the Utah Jazz should target Giannis Antetokounmpo if his tenure with the Miami Heat deteriorates. With the Heat off to a 2-4 start and limited in assets after acquiring Antetokounmpo, reporting from The Athletic indicates the star forward is unwilling to wait for a contender to be built around him during his prime.
John suggests Utah could assemble an enticing trade package featuring Jaren Jackson Jr. and draft capital to acquire Antetokounmpo. Under the proposed scenario, pairing Antetokounmpo alongside Lauri Markkanen, Keyonte George, Darryn Peterson, and Ace Bailey could provide the superstar with a stronger supporting core to win immediately.
