"One thing is clear, and it's that the Heat will be right back on the hunt for Giannis. Whether he actually will want to move on from Milwaukee this summer remains to be seen, but I can't imagine Miami intends on pivoting until he officially signs a long-term extension with the team. He'll have the opportunity to do that this offseason, and if he does, that's the moment where we could see the Heat make an official pivot toward other trade targets."
"But there are likely other players worth keeping an eye on as well. At least for now, the most intriguing possibility for the Heat's sake has to be Donovan Mitchell. Mitchell is a player that the Heat has been linked to before, and it could be decision time for him in Cleveland. The All-Star guard has just one guaranteed year left on his contract after this season."
Miami Heat will pursue Giannis Antetokounmpo as their primary offseason target while remaining prepared to pivot if he commits long-term to Milwaukee. The Heat appear unwilling to change course until Giannis either signs a long-term extension or opts otherwise. Ja Morant is identified as a clear fallback option if Giannis stays in Milwaukee. Donovan Mitchell is another intriguing target given his limited guaranteed contract time in Cleveland and the possibility that another early playoff exit could create uncertainty about his future. The Heat could use renewed assets to pursue significant trade opportunities.
