"If the Miami Heat are ready to make a franchise-altering move, Ja Morant could be right there for the taking as a potential dream NBA Trade Deadline target. With the way his situation is quickly deteriorating with the Memphis Grizzlies, it appears there's a growing chance he could become available between now and February. The Heat, if they're serious about trying to land a superstar player, should be on the short list of teams willing to go all-in for Morant."
"The Heat, who would greatly benefit from a star point guard in their lineup, would be a great fit on paper. Morant would be the exact ball-handling star player the Heat has long desired. Plus, he'd also be a great fit next to Bam Adebayo as a dangerous 1-2 punch. And for all the issues that Morant has had during his time in Memphis and through the early portion of his NBA career, a change of scenery could be exactly what he needs."
Ja Morant's relationship with the Memphis Grizzlies is deteriorating, increasing the chance he becomes available before the February trade deadline. The Miami Heat could pursue Morant as a franchise-altering star acquisition, providing a long-sought ball-handling point guard and pairing effectively with Bam Adebayo. Miami's reputation for successful reclamation projects could offer a beneficial change of scenery for Morant. Recent regression over the past three years and disappointing shooting numbers have lowered his trade value, potentially making a deal feasible without exhausting Heat assets. Through six games this season Morant averages 21 points and seven assists, shooting 41% from the field and 16% from three.
