In time, age catches up to all of us. You may not like it, but you can’t avoid it. One day, you’ll wake up with an inexplicable pain or ache. It will remind you that suddenly, you’re exiting your prime. That’s even more so the case if you’re an NBA player, perhaps.

Now, imagine you were a professional athlete. Age hits them especially hard. In fact, most of them are able to retire by 40. 

When an NBA player ages out of his prime, he sometimes needs a replacement. Take Kyle Lowry of the Miami Heat. In recent years, he hasn’t been as effective as the Heat likely hoped when they signed him. 

Perhaps he needs a younger replacement. Lowry has a great relationship with Jimmy Butler, but regardless, the Heat must operate with the team’s best interest in mind.

Collin Sexton is a great option that could be compatible with Heat culture.

Here’s a deal that has the Heat landing one in Collin Sexton of the Utah Jazz.
