NBA 2026-27 offseason trades, signings & rumors

The Bucks do not like the Heat deal. If they did this would be over with by now.

Now I do not think Stevens trades Brown at all and he tries to bring in fringe pieces in FA to help but it would be very very concerning going into the regular season with Queta and Garza as your center depth.

I love JT but him coming back is not going to solve all the problems. Brown is not going to have another regular season like his did (and he usually disappears in the playoffs). So you are stuck with the same mix, the same issues, the same tired play style and the same first or second round exit.

Cue the sad trombones

If it doesn't happen today either then I really wonder if MIL is just gonna hold on to him through the draft and into July. Like others have said, I don't think the Heat offer has changed and I'm sure potential 3rd teams have been looped in and discussed. If they still haven't agreed, MIL must not love the package or are having second thoughts about trading him. To my knowledge, Giannis hasn't formally requested a trade himself either.

Also if the Celtics did offer Jaylen, and 3rd teams like POR/ATL are involved and it's been offered, then again, idk why it hasn't happened yet.

Maybe they have a deal they will accept, but are pushing it until the last second (draft night) to try and squeeze any extra value they can.

If it doesn't happen on draft night, all bets are off. I'd imagine getting picks in this year's draft is a pretty big deal to them, so I'd have no idea what they are planning to do then

It seems to me that the MIA deal was pending flipping Herro for something that MIL would take.  The reporting indicates that they have gotten that piece resolved.  So they have the MIA deal in hand and they are going back to BOS to say OK, this is what you have to beat.  I don't think MIA can do any more. It is down to a question of if BOS (and maybe others) are willing to beat it.

The complicating factor for BOS is that they need a 3rd team involved.  I am not sure if it is BOS that is going out to these 3rd teams and asking what they will give for Brown or if it is MIL that is doing that shopping.  My guess is that BOS is offering Brown and something but maybe not working on the 3rd team for this.  Who knows.

In any case, I suspect that BOS has said Brown plus maybe a pick, (maybe also offering Hauser for Portis) and MIL is saying Brown and a pick plus more.  And the stare down continues.
