The Miami Heat had a pretty decent season. Even though they would have wished for a better finish, nonetheless, it was a terrific team display all throughout the regular season. They had the best record in the Eastern Conference and naturally ended the season as the first seed. With a pretty good line up Miami Heat certainly had their eyes on a grandstand finish. But they could not move past the Boston Celtics in the conference finals and fell one step short of the NBA finals.
This brings up the question whether they need to reinforce with some new faces in the roster. And one man who has been linked with an offseason move was surprisingly seen spending some time with the Heat star Jimmy Butler, attracting a lot of eyes.

On paper, the Miami Heat actually needs a player with the profile of Donovan Mitchell. Technically he would fit the roster like a glove of the perfect size. With his rumored and as of now a hypothetical addition Miami would welcome a scorer to bring more firepower along with Jimmy Butler. On the other hand he can also guard better with a team like Heat. Mitchell and Butler would all in all make a good trio with Bam Adebayo.?
