GIannis Traded to Miami; Stars are Out at World Cup; Nneka Wins Big for WNBA Anniversary Game

Joy Taylor reacts to a blockbuster NBA trade sending Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat for Tyler Herro, Kyle Lowry, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Kasparas Jakouthonis, three first-round picks (including No. 13, 2031, 2033), a pick swap, and a second-rounder, noting Pat Riley’s history of landing stars and that Miami still needs additional moves. She discusses Milwaukee’s reset, Boston’s reported Jaylen Brown-centered offer, and why Giannis’ departure follows recent Bucks struggles. Taylor also recaps World Cup action with Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé, and Erling Haaland each scoring twice as Argentina, France, and Norway advance alongside Mexico, USA, and Germany, and highlights Nneka Ogwumike’s game-winning shot for the LA Sparks in a Liberty rematch celebrating the WNBA’s 30-year anniversary. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
