If the Miami Heat are going to make something of the 2025-26 NBA season—and have that something be more than a cursory invite to the Play-In Tournament—they need to get active on the trade front. They can't dream about Giannis Antetokounmpo forever, can they?

Especially if Pat Riley maximizes Miami's dollar with one of his patented moves for a distressed star.
