A franchise with the media impact and history that Miami Heat has, cannot afford to navigate through the NBA without serious championship aspirations. The new offensive system designed by the coaching staff is working, bringing back the best version of Adebayo and Jáquez, but something more is needed. That's why there are very strong NBA rumors about the intention to sign a star.
If there is one thing clear at Miami Heat, both management and the coaching staff agree that Tyler Herro is not essential and could be a valuable player to negotiate a trade deal with. The current situation is that there are two high-ranking players going through a rough patch and could be declared transferable: Ja Morant and Anthony Davis. Making a bet on either of them might be risky at the moment, but the price to bring them in would be much lower than expected not long ago.
In both scenarios, the bargaining chip would be Tyler Herro, a player who can contribute significantly to any project but whom the Heat have not fully trusted yet. The offer for Ja Morant to the Grizzlies would involve him and Fontecchio, whereas the pitch to convince the Mavericks to part with AD would be a trade package including Herro, Rozier, and a first-round Draft pick. In either case, the team could take a big qualitative leap but also risk sinking due to changing the team chemistry.
