Heat's Giannis Antetokounmpo: Just misses triple-double Wednesday
Antetokounmpo ended with 20 points (8-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-9 FT), 15 rebounds, nine assists, one steal and three blocks across 24 minutes in Wednesday's 144-128 preseason win over the Nets.
Antetokounmpo appeared in his third preseason game for the Heat, and it was easily his best. Free throw shooting was an issue, and he also had trouble taking care of the ball. However, the multi-time All-Star had a fantastic showing overall, finishing one assist short of a triple-double. The Heat have one exhibition remaining before beginning the regular season against Minnesota on Oct. 21, though it wouldn't be surprising if Antetokounmpo didn't suit up for the preseason finale.

Heat's Giannis Antetokounmpo: Won't play vs. Minnesota
Antetokounmpo (rest) won't be available for Saturday's preseason game against the Timberwolves, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Antetokounmpo is one of several projected starters who won't be available for this preseason matchup. This is likely a rest-related move in order to have Antetokounmpo available for the regular-season opener on Oct. 21 against the Timberwolves, especially since he was limited to just 36 regular-season games with the Bucks in the 2025-26 regular season. His next chance to play will come against Brooklyn on Wednesday.
