Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo appears open to the idea of teaming up with Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell
First, he expressed his disappointment of not making one of the All-NBA teams. Now, he's apparently open to Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell joining the Heat this offseason. Last week a fan offered a Playstation 5 if Adebayo could help bring Mitchell to Miami.The Miami Heat-Donovan Mitchell trade rumors may be nearing an end before conversations even started.
On Thursday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski broke the news that the Cleveland Cavaliers are dismissing coach JB Bickerstaff. The decision was likely made in hopes of retaining Mitchell for at least one additional year, a similar move to the Phoenix Suns recently firing coach Frank Vogel. The Cavaliers failed to advance past the second round with Bickerstaff at the helm, but did reach the Eastern Conference Semifinals for the first time in six years.
"The Cleveland Cavaliers dismissed coach JB Bickerstaff on Thursday," Wojnarowski posted. "Bickerstaff led Cavs to conference semifinals and won 99 regular-season games in past two years, but change comes with hope of advancing deeper."

Another possible option is one of the Atlanta Hawks' star guards, Trae Young or Dejounte Murray. Young could provide much-needed volume scoring at a higher asking price while Murray embodies the idea of 'Heat Culture', specializing in two-way ability."Shandel has covered the NBA since 2010, with previous stops at The Athletic and South Florida Sun-Sentinel.
