In southern Florida, the Miami Heat are finally getting their act together after a rough start to the season. 6-4 in their last 10, the Heat are up to the 6th seed in the East with a 25-22 record through 47 games.

Still, there is a sense that the Heat will need some more depth if they want to compete for a title this season. And with the NBA’s trade deadline approaching, it’s no surprise that Miami has been tagged as one of the teams to watch.

In the latest report by Sean Deveney, Kelly Olynyk and Malik Beasley are being strongly considered as potential trade candidates.

Miami, which has set its potential trade net far and wide as the deadline nears, is among them, with a possible bigger deal that would send both Beasley and former Heat big guy Kelly Olynyk to Miami for a package built around Duncan Robinson, Caleb Martin and a combination of picks and young players (though Miami remains reluctant to put rookie Nikola Jovic in any deals, a stance that could change as the deadline approaches.

“The Heat are looking to get bigger obviously but they’re looking to get better all over the roster,” one league source told Heavy Sports. “They’re trying every angle. Their shooting has been a major disappointment, they need guys who can make shots there.”

The NBA trade market has been notoriously quiet this season, and the number of sellers is expected to be low. For the Jazz, however, they could host a bidding war if they are willing to part with some of their veteran players.


Several NBA Contenders Are Vying For Malik Beasley

As a 26-year-old sharpshooter on a team-friendly contract, Malik Beasley in particular has drawn a lot of attention from GMs across the league. According to Deveney, several contenders are interested in his services.

Cleveland, also looking for veteran wing depth, is said to be weighing an offer that would bring in Beasley as part of a three-way deal that would put John Collins in Utah and Caris LeVert, who is in the final year of his contract, in Atlanta.

The Bucks are also said to have interest in Beasley, though Milwaukee can’t trade a first-rounder until 2029. Brooklyn, too, would like to bring in Beasley if it can move Seth Curry or Joe Harris, but the Nets are decidedly thin on draft capital, and can’t deal a pick until 2028.

“He is probably on the top of the list for the Nets,” the executive said. “But easier said than done.”

Needless to say, the Jazz have some players that a lot of teams covet and it might serve them best to part with some of those players to help build up their future.

Looking at the Heat, it’s important for them not to grow complacent after their improved play. Fortunately, Pat Riley is a man of action and we can expect him to exhaust all options in his quest to build the best roster he can.
