"As Kasparas Jakucionis continues to emerge for the Miami Heat, it could open the door to cutting ties with both Norman Powell and Tyler Herro this summer. As unlikely as it may sound, it could emerge as an option that the Heat's front office may strongly consider. Especially if the Heat will be looking for avenues to acquire a superstar talent, there's reason to believe that Miami may have to resort to cutting serious salary this offseason."
"Powell will hit the free-agency market this offseason, and Herro has just one year on his deal. If Powell finds a bigger payday or better opportunity elsewhere, it wouldn't be all that surprising to see him walk. Similarly, if Miami doesn't have interest in giving Herro an extension he'll likely be seeking, there's reason to believe both sides would be better off with a trade."
Kasparas Jakucionis is emerging as a rotation-level contributor for the Miami Heat, prompting consideration of major roster moves. His increased minutes reflect growing trust from coach Erik Spoelstra. Offensive efficiency has improved as Jakucionis' opportunities have expanded. Teammates have publicly praised his development. Norman Powell will become a free agent this offseason, and Tyler Herro has one year remaining on his contract, creating potential salary and roster flexibility. Miami could choose not to match a Herro extension or allow Powell to pursue other opportunities, making trades or departures plausible. Clearing salary could be used to pursue a superstar acquisition.
