This is the NBA we live in. The Miami Heat are one month away from completing their magnificent season with the leadership of the East and Tyler Herro aims to be the first unanimous Sixth Man in history. But the news is not on the court, even though the competition faces its most exciting stage. Today in another of those articles from ‘transfer market intel‘ that proliferate so much, Jake Fischer reveals that the Heat could be planning to look for Herro to make room for a new star.
According to him insider from Bleacher ReportThis postseason will be crucial for the franchise to check whether Herro belongs to the all-star trio of Butler, Lowry and Adebayo. In the next offseason The shooting guard will be eligible for a rookie contract extension and before executing it, the Heat will test the field of available players. During certain points of the season the name of Donovan Mitchell has been shuffled due to his apparent bad relationship with Rudy Gobert and the speculation about his being fed up with the Jazz project. Simple guesses.
But this is not the only alternative, but his departure could also point to making room for the landing of a star via free agency. Pat Riley has already executed similar operations to make room for Kawhi Leonard in 2019 and Giannis Antetokounmpo in 2021, although neither of them came to fruition. In these calculations, the franchise would also seek to lighten the salary space by dispensing with Duncan Robinson while exploring the options of renewing Victor Oladipo and Caleb Martin, both with the intention of remaining in Florida. Christian Wood and PJ Washington are among the main candidates to accompany Adebayo inside.
