No money guaranteed in 2026/27, HoopsHype has learned. Guarantee increases to full if not waived by June 28, 2026.

We had the tenth highest payroll in the league this past season at 176 million. And right now without re-signing davion to his QO, or offering any extensions, or making any cuts, just rolling the same roster back, we would remain at # 10 with 176.5 million in salaries.
And we arent going to do **** with this roster.
The first thing we will do is offer Davion his QO.
Then I imagine with the expirings we have to offer, which is Robinson, Rozier, Kevin Love, Highsmith, we will see what teams that are in salary cap hell contacts us to see if we can get picks in return.
If not i imagine Rozier and Robinson will get into contract buyout talks. Love and highsmith stays on the roster.
No extensions to be offered to Herro, Highsmith or Jovic.. they stay as is. If they leave at 2026 then so be it. Herro is a free agent in 2027 so there really is no reason at all to offer an extension. In 2027 if hes still around (hopefully not) they can have those negotiation with his agent at that time.
Wiggins im confident we can get a pick and expiring for.. maybe not a full 29 million expiring, though its not impossible..
Andersen, his contract cant be that difficult to get an expiring..

do you trust Davion? I feel like he was only playing this good because of contract year once he signed a new contract he might be nowhere to be seen.
Whats a 19 mill dollar per player talent look like?contract wrote:NightWatch wrote:Vertical Limit wrote:I expect some sort of move to be done the next 2 weeks by the Heat.

Mitchell only played well after he got here (~ 34 games total including the playoffs). He started the year looking like he always has. We may be about to overpay for a hot streak.
IMO what he's earning now (~ $6.5 mil) is fair value. $19 million would be Duncan Robinson level insanity.

Lakers for: Vincent, Hachimura, 1st
Clippers for: Bogdonovic, DJJ, 1st
That’s pretty much it. I’ve looked at all teams depth charts. If someone can find a home for him let me know what other team makes sense. Please don’t say the Kings for DeRozan.

Take Harper 2, Kneuppel/Bailey 5 (or trade down for more assets), BPA at 38

He would still be making great deals if the Heat were in the West wouldn't he? The Heat have been great at taking advantage of being in the weaker conference. There's no way in hell that they go to 7 finals in 16 years out of the West with the rosters they've had the last 20 years.
Some people in here are starting to act like entitled Lakers fans. It's been 25 years since the Dolphins have won a playoff game, but it's only been 2 seasons since the last time the Heat were in the finals. They were due for a rebuilding cycle. But yes, what I said in my first paragraph is gonna make the rebuild much worse than it should be.

Also with a full offseason with Ware, Bam is poised to boost his production and make the All-Star team next year.

Yeah Hali, Dame and Tatum. Three wings/guards who would be favorites over him to get a spot when healthy.
