Miami Heat trade target #2: Tomas Satoransky & Thaddeus Young

This is another deal that would help the Miami Heat add depth. Both of these players would be able to contribute impactful minutes next season

While Tomas Satoransky may not be the answer at point guard, he would certainly be a solid backup. He had a decent year last season, and at 6-7, is super tall for the guard position.

Last year, he averaged 7.7 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 4.7 assists. Satoransky shot 51.4% from the field and 35.6% from three-point range.

His playmaking and efficient shooting would be the perfect addition to Miami’s bench. He’ll also be off the books after next season, meaning the Heat would maintain cap flexibility in the future.

Thaddeus Young would also be off the books at the end of next year. He’s a 6-8 power forward who would be able to start next to Bam Adebayo.

Last season, Young averaged 12.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 4.3 assists for the Bulls. He shot 55.9% from the field and 26.7% from deep.

His defensive versatility is what makes him such an intriguing option. Young is also a solid playmaker for his position who would help improve the Heat’s offense.

As for the Bulls, they are supposedly looking to add a point guard this offseason. While Lonzo Ball is supposedly their top choice, adding Nunn would be a solid option if that doesn’t work out.
