Martin is currently negotiating a buyout with the Minnesota Timberwolves and could be available soon.
Now that the NBA trade deadline has passed, more and more veterans seeking buyout agreements will be shaking free from their respective teams and looking for more attractive destinations. The Miami Heat are naturally looking for help with two roster spots open after completing three trades before the deadline and with a potential third slot available if they waive injured point guard Beno Udrih.
With Kevin Martin now reportedly in advanced negotiations with the Minnesota Timberwolves, the 33-year-old guard has now been linked to the Heat should he hit the open market.
