Q: Ira, Haywood Highsmith was just cut by the Suns. Once the Heat sign the offensive guard they are looking for, do you think they might look to him? He’s another good defensive player and a pretty good 3-point shooter. – Joel.
A: And a player who appeared in only seven games last season, one who turns 30 in December. While the Heat have long been loyal to those seeking a second chance, I would think, at best, the likes of Haywood Highsmith and Gabe Vincent would be backburner possibilities . Yes, the Heat need another element in their power rotation, but they also likely would seem to be in need of someone who potentially also could play center, rather than a combo forward, such as Haywood, who is listed by the NBA at 6 feet 5. Now, should other elements of the roster shake out where alternative players might be sought, then maybe. Again, backburner at best – for both Haywood and Gabe.

Q: If we were relying on Bradley Beal for anything, the Heat have big problems. – Joshua.
A: Which, a case could be made, they do, considering there is no clear frontrunner on this roster to be the starting shooting guard, with all due respect to Tim Hardaway Jr. and Pelle Larsson. When is the last time a team that considered itself a contender entered camp without definitive notions of starters at all five positions?
Q: Klay Thompson would be a huge addition with his shooting and most importantly playoff and championship experience to go along with Giannis Antetokounmpo, as he brings the same, and Bam Adebayo with his deep playoff runs. But let’s not forget what DeMar DeRozan brings to the table. That would also be huge. – Douglas.
A: Or create a traffic jam. Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bam Adebayo and DeMar DeRozan on the court together leaves little space for the three to operate. Now, the three still could be staggered, but that still would mean being without a definitive answer at starting shooting guard. The consternation is legitimate when it comes to how the Heat will fill out their starting lineup.
