Maybe we were all wrong about the Miami Heat's plan to get back on the path toward championship contention. Instead of potentially making a big move in 2026, there's an argument to be made that the Heat's bold plans for the future could revolve around 2027 instead. If that's the case, it will make many already impatient Heat fans that much more restless.
That's because the free-agent pool for 2026 is already beginning to drain. Add in the likelihood that Luka Doncic and De'Aaron Fox will sign extensions later this summer, and there simply won't be many options on the table for the Heat.
