Briefly

Andrew Wiggins remains with the Heat and returned this offseason, reportedly spending significant time at team facilities and demonstrating commitment despite trade rumors linking him to the Bucks and Lakers.

Training camp approaches with strategic questions unresolved. Health and role clarity will shape Miami's rotation and playoff prospects.
The tumultuous end to the Jimmy Butler era still haunts the Miami Heat as we head into the new season, but new additions like Norman Powell and a commitment to hard-nosed players like Davion Mitchell show the Heat are ready to turn over a new leaf and lead a new identity. As we approach training camp, one player who many thought wouldn't still be wearing Miami's black and red is still there, and the return of Andrew Wiggins offers a lot of potential.
