Miami Heat Receive: G/F Josh Richardson
San Antonio Spurs Receive: G/F Duncan Robinson, 2023 First-Round Pick (MIA)
That’s right. We used the same formula. Honestly, “3 Trade Ideas For Miami Heat To Move Duncan Robinson And Their 2023 First-Round Pick” didn’t make for a good headline.
This deal has the Heat reuniting with Josh Richardson. He got his start with this organization, and he’d still be a sensible acquisition for them in 2022.
Richardson doesn’t space the floor as well as Robinson, but he’s still an adequate shooter. Meanwhile, he’s a vastly better defender. The Heat already know they can trust him on that end of the floor.
None of these deals will be easy for the Heat to pull the trigger on. Each one raises the stakes ahead of 2022-23: with their first-round pick outgoing, the Heat can’t afford to have a subpar season anymore.
