🚨 THE MIAMI HEAT COULD BE INTERESTED IN JOHN KONCHAR! 🚨
The Miami Heat may have another opportunity to add a player they have previously targeted.
John Konchar was recently traded from the Utah Jazz to the Minnesota Timberwolves alongside Cody Williams, with Minnesota acquiring him as part of a move to create salary-cap flexibility. The Timberwolves then waived Konchar and stretched his contract, making the veteran wing available to potentially sign with another NBA team.
And here’s where things get VERY interesting for Miami…
According to NBA insider Brett Siegel, the Miami Heat were one of the teams with real trade interest in John Konchar when he was still with the Memphis Grizzlies.
Now that Konchar is available again, Siegel believes Miami could still have interest.
Miami currently has an open roster spot and is reportedly approximately $2.5 million below the first-apron hard cap, which makes this situation especially interesting.
So the question is:
🔥 IS JOHN KONCHAR THE RIGHT FIT FOR THE MIAMI HEAT?
Konchar isn’t a player you’re signing because you expect him to score 20 points every night.
That’s not his game.
He’s a 6’5” versatile guard/wing who can contribute in multiple areas, defend, rebound, move the ball and do the little things that don’t always show up in the box score.
During the 2025-26 season, Konchar averaged:
🏀 4.4 PPG
🏀 4.3 RPG
🏀 2.1 APG
🏀 47.2% FG
And over his NBA career, he’s averaged approximately 4.3 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.
But there’s another reason this is worth talking about.
The Miami Heat already have Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bam Adebayo, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins, Norman Powell, Davion Mitchell, Bobby Portis and Nick Richards as part of a completely transformed roster.
Miami doesn’t necessarily need another player who needs the ball in his hands.
Could a player like Konchar give Erik Spoelstra another versatile, team-first piece who can defend, rebound and make winning plays?
And if Miami REALLY did have interest in him before…
WHY NOT NOW? 👀
That’s what we’re breaking down in today’s episode of Miami Heat Talk.

🚨 HEAT FANS — WOULD YOU SIGN JOHN KONCHAR?! 🚨
Miami reportedly had real trade interest in Konchar when he was with Memphis, and now he’s available after Minnesota waived him.
So here’s my question:
🔥 IS JOHN KONCHAR THE RIGHT FIT FOR THE MIAMI HEAT?!
He’s not a superstar.
He’s not going to average 20 points.
But he’s a versatile player who can defend, rebound, move the basketball and do the little things.
And with Miami’s current roster, sometimes those are EXACTLY the types of players you want around your stars.
YES or NO — SHOULD PAT RILEY SIGN JOHN KONCHAR? 👇
