Why The Miami Heat Do The Deal
This should look different than the situation in Minnesota for a few reasons.
Firstly, on the subject of running wings at the 4, the Heat have been going with Jimmy Butler at the position for most of the year. Even in the modern context, that might be a stretch.
In fact, Adebayo at the 4 may be more appealing. Herein lies the difference between Adebayo and Towns – Adebayo can guard both the perimeter and the paint.
Meanwhile, Vucevic spaces the floor, so the Heat will maintain four-out spacing if they choose to bump Butler back down to the 3.

Alternatively, they could use Vooch as a sixth man. He’d certainly be able to keep this offense humming while the starters rest. No matter how the Heat arrange their lineups following this deal, it certainly makes them more talented.
