American Airlines Arena name could go the way of the Heat’s first home, the Miami Arena.

Home to Miami Heat for the last 20 years, American Airlines isn’t “in the mix” for naming rights to the arena per reports when the present deal expires.

The home of the Miami Heat is getting a new name: American Airlines is no longer vying for the naming rights it bought more than two decades ago, Miami-Dade Deputy Mayor Ed Marquez said Monday.

American Airlines, they’re not in the mix,” he said.

With less than three months remaining in 2019, the arena’s new name has yet to be determined.
