The Miami Heat are at risk of missing the playoffs for the first time since 2018-19, currently with a 37-45 record. They aim to make history by winning two road play-in games. Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns have missed the playoffs for the first time since 2019-20, leading to speculation about their front office changes. James Jones, currently the president of basketball operations for the Suns, may be let go, prompting interest from the Heat due to his ties to the region and past success with the team.
"The fate of president of basketball operations James Jones is not yet known, but his contract expires at the end of June. Ishbia is widely expected to consider new candidates for the role."
"Jones has been with the Suns since 2017 and has held the lead role in the front office since 2019, though league and team sources say Ishbia and CEO Josh Bartelstein assumed far more prominent roles in trade negotiations and team operations this season."
