Heat Planning To Maintain Max Cap Space For 2026 OffseasonHeat Planning To Maintain Max Cap Space For 2026 Offseason
The Miami Heat are attempting to position themselves to have max cap space during the 2026 offseason. Miami has only $85 million committed for the 26-27 season against a projected salary cap of $170.6 million.
Terry Rozier and Duncan Robinson are among the current players on the Heat who will come off their books that offseason.
Many of these players will sign extensions before 2026, but among the currently projected free agents are Luka Doncic, De’Aaron Fox, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jaren Jackson Jr., Kevin Durant and Mikal Bridges.
Fewer players have left their teams via free agency in recent seasons with Paul George being a lone exception. Miami, however, acquired Jimmy Butler when he was a free agent but they did so as a sign-and-trade without any cap space.
Miami’s plans for 2026 are factoring into their decision-making as they evaluate Butler trade options as they do not want to take back long-term salary.

Dylan Harper Viewed By NBA Teams As Consensus Top-2 Pick In 2025 NBA DraftDylan Harper Viewed By NBA Teams As Consensus Top-2 Pick In 2025 NBA Draft
Dylan Harper has had a strong start to his freshman season at Rutgers and “has established himself among front offices as a consensus top-two pick at this stage,” reports Jeremy Woo of ESPN. Harper is even a candidate to be selected at No. 1 even though Cooper Flagg remains the favorite.
Harper is averaging 21.1 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.5 assists. Harper is shooting 36 percent on almost five three-point attempts per game.
Rutgers, however, could miss out on the NCAA tournament as they are just 7-6 at this point in the season. Behind Harper on many mocks are teammate Ace Bailey as well as VJ Edgecombe of Baylor and Kasparas Jakucionis of Illinois.
