The beginning of the NBA season has been a tricky one. Navigating through the pandemic and seeing some big trades happen. As we approach the deadline, there are some other deals out there to be made and the Miami Heat could be interested in one.
The Miami Heat have been linked to some big-name players in free agency but that is not until next offseason. They are in a position to improve right away given their slow start to the year. This is a team that made a run to the NBA Finals a year ago and will do whatever it takes to get back.
Jimmy Butler is back in the lineup after missing some time while Bam Adebayo is dominating on both ends. To keep up in the Eastern Conference, Miami will have to add another star.
That is what they can attempt to do in this deal with the Houston Rockets. Houston finally ended the James Harden drama when he was sent to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for some players and a plethora of draft capital.
Houston signed Christian Wood in free agency to team up with John Wall, who they landed in the Russell Westbrook trade. The front office of Houston is making a lot of moves and could look to get a return for a while.
This would help the point guard position in Miami and give them another option on the offensive end. Let’s take a look at what it might deal look like to get all in Miami.
