3 Miami Heat ‘Black Friday’ NBA Trade Targets – Changing Towns In Florida
In case you’ve never experienced the grand retail revolution known as Black Friday, you should go into it thinking “good deals” and “places that are likely to offer said deals”. That is the concept that will be taken on here and the concept of the candidates.
Here goes nothing.
Franz Wagner
Though you may look at this situation and ask “why”, which is completely fair, there are two very important things to consider here. And they can be summed up in nice, bite-sized, digestible phrases.
Context. Paolo Banchero.
When thinking “context”, Franz Wagner would be a more than ideal target for the Heat. He has size, versatility, and skills.

He can slide up and down the lineup, playing from 2-5 if you know the Miami Heat, never afraid to go small with their lineups. Again, it would have to come up at an ideal price for the Heat, which would never happen, but you do keep those factors in mind.
Banchero and Wagner play the same positions, which can’t be described by one classic position group name. They are just big guys, capable of operating as a PF or C in today’s league, while also being guys with guard skill sets.
You probably can’t maximize them both, as you are, inevitably, taking the ball from one to provide for the other. And it’s not as if they don’t have valuable pieces and guards around them that can also become big-time players, such as Cole Anthony, Jalen Suggs, or the splashing Bol Bol.
It’s just a lot going on and they could bring themselves valuable assets that more conductively fit the growth of the whole by moving a guy that they’ll ultimately have to prioritize paying, but won’t be able to prioritize his maximization on the floor.
Because Banchero is still the better player with more potential, though Wagner can still be great as well.
