3-Team NBA Trade Ideas: Deals for Kyle Kuzma, Andrew Wiggins, Jerami Grant and more | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats & Rumors

Miami Heat Reception: F. Kyle Kuzma

Orlando Magic Receives: PG Malcolm Brogdon, G/F Josh Richardson, 2026 second round pick (via Los Angeles Lakers)

Washington Wizards receive: G Cole Anthony, F Jett Howard, F Nikola Jović, F Duncan Robinson, 2029 first round pick (top 5 protected, via Miami Heat*)

After finishing eighth in the East last year and surviving the play-in tournament, the Heat could use some more firepower to get back on top of the East.

Kuzma, 29, averaged 22.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 4.2 assists and made 35.5 percent of his catch-and-shoot threes last season. He would be an ideal starting power forward between Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebyao as a scoring threat who can space the floor and serve as a willing passer.

The signing of Kentvaious Caldwell-Pope was a huge win for Orlando, though he does little to improve the Magic’s offensive creation woes. Bringing in a proven point guard like Malcom Brogdon (15.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 41.2 percent from three) would breathe some life into this Orlando offense, while Richardson is a versatile wing who could slot the Magic into the rotation.

The Wizards get a nice haul of young players and draft picks in exchange for their veterans. Cole Anthony, Jett Howard and Nikola Jović are all between 20 and 24 years old, while Robinson’s shooting makes life easier for everyone. Orlando also gets a future first-round pick from Miami, which depends on when previous draft picks are traded.
