Speculation of a possible Donovan Mitchell trade to the Miami Heat has grown in recent days. First came a Jan. 12 piece in The Athletic on Dwyane Wade in which Mitchell said that he was “definitely a Heat fan growing up.” (Wade purchased an ownership stake in the Jazz last year.)
And then Greg Sylvander of the 5 Reasons Sports Network tweeted Jan. 14 that if Mitchell were to ever ask out of Utah, Miami would be his first choice.
I believe this is well documented & relatively obvious but…
I can confirm that if Donovan Mitchell were to ever ask out of Utah, it’s believed Miami would be his first choice and New York a more distant second as preferred destinations according to a league source.
