Why The Miami Heat Do The Deal

While the Minnesota Timberwolves are on the upswing, the Miami Heat run the risk of declining in 2022-23.

Yes, there is ample talent on this squad. With that said, their best player, Jimmy Butler, will turn 33 next season. If his production starts to slide, nobody should be shocked.

Meanwhile, Bam Adebayo is still coming into his prime. He’s an outstanding player, but he’s largely valuable for his two-way impact. He may not have the offensive abilities to carry the amount of weight the Heat need him to.
