NBA Trade Deadline candidate: Kelly Olynyk, Miami Heat
In the event that the Miami Heat doesn’t bounce back from their horrendous start to the season, I wouldn’t be surprised to see this team pivot onto selling some of their veterans, expiring contracts that they don’t plan on re-signing during the offseason.
One of those players could be Kelly Olynyk, who would be a target that many contenders would pursue at the NBA. Trade Deadline. Olynyk is a big that. can stretch the defense and wouldn’t cost much. He’d likely be viewed as a rental and could help a team that is looking for depth along the frontcourt.
I still don’t believe that the Miami Heat isn’t going to bounce back once they get healthy, but I suppose it’s a possibility that we can’t count out until this team proves that it can play at a high level once again.
