The Miami Heat faithful have a new reason to speculate, thanks to recent comments by Dan LeBatard on his show, where he hinted at a potential blockbuster move involving Minnesota Timberwolves’ star Anthony Edwards.
LeBatard suggested that Miami should closely watch the ongoing ownership dispute within the Timberwolves, involving Glen Taylor and former MLB player Alex Rodriguez. Depending on how the situation unfolds, Edwards could eventually seek a trade, possibly eyeing Miami as his next destination.
The rumor gains traction as Edwards, currently representing Team USA in the Paris Olympics, is building strong on-court chemistry with Heat star Bam Adebayo.
Under the guidance of Miami’s head coach Erik Spoelstra, who is also part of the Olympic coaching staff, Edwards has praised the “Heat Culture,” adding fuel to the speculation.
If the Heat were to pursue Edwards, they would need to offer a hefty package, possibly including multiple key players and draft picks. While a trade seems far-fetched, the growing connection between Edwards and the Heat during the Olympics has fans dreaming of another “Super Team” in Miami.
