Here’s a name that those that follow the Miami Heat didn’t think they would hear this offseason. With speculation that seems to heavily revolve around the Utah Jazz’s Donovan Mitchell and even Zach LaVine of the Chicago Bulls, why not add another biggish name to the list.
That name would be Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Admittedly though and before going through this exercise, there hasn’t been anything linking the Miami Heat to the 23-year-old, it just leans towards Pat Riley’s insinuation that anything is possible as he tied a bow around the season.
