As the NBA trade deadline approaches on February 5, 2026, the New York Knicks are not aggressively pursuing Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, despite being his preferred destination last offseason. ESPN's Brian Windhorst reports the Knicks believe in their current roster and lack the draft assets for a strong offer without multi-team involvement. Meanwhile, teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves and Miami Heat are more active in the sweepstakes.
As the NBA trade deadline nears, a mock trade scenario has the Minnesota Timberwolves acquiring guard Coby White from the Chicago Bulls to bolster their backcourt. The deal would send veteran Mike Conley and young prospects to Chicago in exchange for the 25-year-old White, whose contract expires after the 2025-26 season. This move aims to enhance Minnesota's title contention while helping the Bulls rebuild.
