Breaking down the imminent Miami Heat free agents coming this summer, as well as those with player and team options for 2022-23.
The Miami Heat are in the midst of their most successful stretch since LeBron James left. This is their third consecutive postseason appearance and second season with at least 10 postseason wins. Acquiring Jimmy Butler before the 2019-20 season has proven to be worth it, as the Heat finished with the best record in the conference during the regular season.
With Butler, young All-Star center Bam Adebayo, and Sixth Man of the Year Tyler Herro already in tow, head coach Eric Spoelstra and team president Pat Riley won’t have major work to do in the offseason to keep Miami rolling.
Check out Boardroom’s full breakdown of imminent Heat free agents, as well as a snapshot of the team’s salary cap outlook as things currently stand.
