Duncan Robinson decision moves Miami Heat into free agency

Duncan Robinson's decision regarding his contract has significant implications for the Miami Heat as they approach the NBA free agency period. Robinson holds an early-termination option on his contract, allowing him to opt out of a $20 million salary for the 2025-26 season. However, only half of that salary is guaranteed, creating a strategic dilemma for both him and the team. If he opts in, the Heat will exceed the luxury tax threshold, complicating their financial flexibility.

Additionally, the Heat have recently acquired Andrew Wiggins in a trade that sent Jimmy Butler to the Golden State Warriors. Wiggins is now a key asset for potential trades, with speculation surrounding moves for players like DeMar DeRozan and Bradley Beal. As the Heat prepare for free agency and potential trades, all eyes will be on Robinson's choice and how it shapes the team’s roster for the upcoming season.

What are the potential long-term effects if Duncan Robinson opts out?What are the implications of exceeding the luxury tax for the Heat?How does acquiring Andrew Wiggins change the Heat's game plan?What potential trades could the Heat pursue this offseason?
