Ranking Miami Heat players from least to most untouchable

10. Gabe Vincent

The Miami Heat are going to make Gabe Vincent the backup point guard this season. He’ll have the chance to prove that he can perform at the NBA level.

While this will be a great opportunity, and he could end up playing super well, he’s not untouchable by any means. If the right package arises, Miami probably wouldn’t hesitate.

9. Victor Oladipo

At his peak Victor Oladipo is an All-Star caliber player; but who knows if he’ll ever reach that peak again. Keeping him would probably be in Miami’s best interest since they just re-signed him, but anything is possible in the world of the NBA.

Teams around the league might think twice about trading for someone with his injury history. That being said, the Heat shouldn’t worry about him being untouchable for that same reason.

8. PJ Tucker

The Miami Heat should definitely look to keep PJ Tucker because of how well he fits with the team. His floor spacing could drastically improve Miami’s offense this year.

However, he is certainly less untouchable than some other players on the roster. They probably won’t move him, but losing him would not be the end of the world.

7. Omer Yurtseven

While he may have the most value among their tradable assets, the Miami Heat should look to hold on to Omer Yurtseven. He has the potential to be a real game-changer for them.

His ability to stretch the floor and impact the game on offense could be huge for the Heat. If they don’t get the perfect offer, they need to keep Yurtseven around
