The Miami Heat could use an infusion of talent at the wing. Who are some options that also wouldn’t break the bank?

SG – Evan Fournier

Evan Fournier is the perfect player for the Miami Heat to target this offseason. Last season they struggled to score the ball, and Fournier does exactly that.

The Boston Celtics traded two second-round picks for him last year. However, he will be an unrestricted free agent this summer.

He averaged 17.1 points last season while shooting 45.7% from the field and 41.3% from deep. This sort of efficient scoring is exactly what the Heat could use on the roster.

Fournier can get his own buckets but also plays well off of others. His ability to do a little bit of everything would fit nicely next to Jimmy Butler on the wing.

SF – Otto Porter Jr.

Otto Porter Jr. would be a great piece to add to the Miami Heat’s roster. Though he’s not a superstar talent, he would help add more depth to the rotation.

Kawhi Leonard is a name that has been thrown around in recent weeks. While that would be amazing, this idea is a bit more realistic, and a whole lot cheaper.

Porter Jr. was traded midway through last season from the Bulls to the Magic. He’s an efficient three-point shooter who has always been a solid scorer.

He won’t hurt the team too much on the defensive end, and his scoring would be a big help. The best part, however, is that he’ll likely only garner around $10-$12 million on the open market at best.
