Kyrie, Jrue or LaVine: Could the Heat Actually Land Another All-Star?

Could the Miami Heat still add another All-Star guard next to Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo? Wes Goldberg and David Ramil examine three names Heat fans keep asking about: Kyrie Irving, Jrue Holiday and Zach LaVine.

Which guard is the best fit — and which is actually attainable? Wes and David explain why trades for Kyrie and Holiday are extremely difficult without draft capital before exploring the possibility of LaVine negotiating a buyout if Sacramento falls out of contention.

But what if Miami’s real plan is to wait until next summer? The Heat’s recent financial decisions could position them to use the full non-taxpayer mid-level exception on a 2027 free-agent class that could include LaVine, Jordan Poole, RJ Barrett, Fred VanVleet and more.
