The Miami Heat may already have a backup plan if they are unable to land Giannis Antetokounmpo this offseason. According to Ira Winderman, the Heat could pivot toward either Kawhi Leonard or Ja Morant if a Giannis trade does not materialize — and honestly, this changes EVERYTHING for Miami’s future.
In today’s episode of Miami Heat Talk, we break down whether the Heat should pursue Kawhi Leonard, Ja Morant, or possibly even BOTH stars depending on the market and trade flexibility this summer.
Personally, I believe Kawhi Leonard is the PERFECT fit for the Miami Heat culture. Even at 35 years old next season, Kawhi is still playing elite basketball and is coming off one of the most statistically efficient stretches of his career. His championship pedigree, playoff experience, two-way dominance, leadership, and expiring contract make him an incredibly intriguing option for Miami if the Giannis pursuit falls apart.
