As we enter the offseason for the Miami Heat, it’s speculation time for a team without a clear path to make substantial improvements. The Heat are laden down with a number of bloated contracts, but they have their own draft pick in the 2019 draft and a handful of young players on cheap and rookie scale contracts. Could that be enough to swing a deal for a superstar like Blake Griffin of the Detroit Pistons?
Zack Buckley of Bleacher Report hypothesized about such a blockbuster move. Buckley’s proposition is based on the Pistons desiring to change direction just a year and a half after acquiring him via trade from the Los Angeles Clippers.
