Furthermore, Bill Simmons of The Ringer reports that the Milwaukee Bucks are one team that will target Wade:
Keep hearing that the Bucks are making a stealth play for D-Wade. He needs one team to offer him 4 years for big bucks for Miami leverage.

Wade is already familiar with the city of Milwaukee, as he spent his two years of college ball playing for Marquette University.
