Miami Heat Receive: Kevin Love

Cleveland Cavaliers Receive: Kelly Olynyk, Andre Igoudala, 2022 1st Round Pick

When Love was a member of the Minnesota Timberwolves, he was sent to Cleveland in a huge blockbuster deal. Years later, this deal would not have the same effect, but it would still go a long way in helping the Heat.

Miami was just one series win away from a championship. Pat Riley is always looking to make the big move and Love would absolutely be a big move even at this stage in his career. Both Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo would improve with this deal as well.

The Cavaliers would get back low-risk veterans such as Kelly Olynyk and Andre Igoudala. They are both on short-term deals and could be dealt in separate deals to contenders. The important piece would be Cleveland acquiring a first-round pick.

Let’s take a closer look and see how this deal would impact both sides in the immediate future.
