Utah Jazz Receive: G Tyler Herro, C Omer Yurtseven, F Duncan Robinson, 2023 First-Round Pick (MIA), 2026 First-Round Pick (MIA)
Miami Heat Receive: G Donovan Mitchell

It’s not often a team is forced to trade a star in the 25-and-under club for their immediate replacement. The Miami Heat are in a position to offer the Utah Jazz that exact opportunity.

Admittedly, this is a steep price for the Heat to pay. Herro is likely to be awarded as the Sixth Man of the Year in 2021-22. That’s quite an accomplishment for the 22-year-old.

If the Heat make a Conference Finals run or deeper, this deal is probably off the table.

On the other hand, if they fall short, they shouldn’t hesitate to offer this package. The Heat are a premier free-agent destination. First-round picks aren’t as valuable to them as a small-market club.
