DeMar DeRozan to the Denver Nuggets?! Is the Miami Heat making a huge mistake by continuing to wait on Klay Thompson?
In today’s episode of Miami Heat Talk, we dive deep into the latest DeMar DeRozan rumors and what his availability could mean for the Miami Heat.
DeRozan has emerged as a potential option for the Denver Nuggets, adding another serious contender to the list of teams that could potentially land the veteran six-time All-Star. Miami has also been connected to DeRozan, but the Heat have continued to preserve the remainder of their mid-level exception while keeping their focus on the possibility of adding Klay Thompson.

We also address something that had several Miami Heat fans confused: the reports claiming DeMar DeRozan had already signed with the Golden State Warriors.
That is NOT true. There have been false reports circulating online, including a fake social-media post that caused some fans to believe DeRozan had already chosen Golden State. (Reddit)
But the bigger question is this:
Is Miami making a mistake by waiting?
Reports indicate that DeRozan is looking for more than a veteran minimum contract, which means Miami could potentially have to use a significant portion of its remaining exception money to bring him to South Beach. At the same time, the Heat are preserving that money because Klay Thompson remains a major target.
So what should Miami do?
Should the Heat continue waiting for Klay Thompson?
Should Pat Riley and the front office make a move for DeMar DeRozan before another team—potentially Denver—takes him off the market?
Or is Klay simply the better fit alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo?
That’s the debate we’re having today.
I also break down what DeRozan would bring to Miami offensively, how he could potentially fit into the Heat’s rotation, and whether his ability to create his own shot could give Miami something the roster currently needs.
And most importantly, I want to hear from YOU!

🔥 Should Miami stop waiting on Klay Thompson?
🔥 Is Klay the better fit next to Giannis and Bam?
