The Miami Heat could look to improve the point guard position for the second half of the season. This was a focus in the NBA offseason and they were unable to do so. This led to team to bringing back Goran Dragic and running with ultimately the same team that made it to the finals last year. So far this season, they have not had the same fortune.
Miami is currently in the middle of the pack in the Eastern Conference. They expected to finish near the top with some of the elite clubs but have not looked the part just yet. Individually, Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro have played well this season with Jimmy Butler being the focal point of the offense once again. This team has seen some inconsistencies, which is why they could be looking to add another big-name player at the deadline. Russell Westbrook would join Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo to create a bit of a big three with the Heat. He would solidify the most important position on the floor and give the team a dynamic option at the top of the offense. Westbrook might not be as expensive as in previous years considering his current situation. The Washington Wizards have quickly turned into one of the biggest dumpster fires in the league. In the offseason, some of their big names requested a trade, and John Wall was ultimately sent to the Houston Rockets. This is the type of deal that could send the rebuild to the next level. Westbrook is having an incredible individual season and is still one of the elite point guards in the game.
This is not a deal that would land Washington assets for the future but they would get a draft pick a replacement at the point guard position. When looking at the current state of the Wizards, it is important to know which players to build around and which to send away PLZ LIKE AND SHARE!
