The Miami Heat made a significant move in NBA Free Agency, trading Duncan Robinson, the franchise's all-time leading three-point shooter, to the Detroit Pistons in a sign-and-trade deal. In exchange, the Heat acquired Simone Fontecchio, a 6-foot-7 forward who has shown scoring potential throughout his career, averaging 7.6 points per game with decent shooting percentages. Robinson, who leaves behind a legacy as an undrafted gem turned $90 million player, is set to sign a three-year, $48 million deal with Detroit.

This trade reflects Miami's strategic pivot as they navigate Free Agency, having previously retained Davion Mitchell, a bright spot for the team. While Robinson's departure may create a void in shooting, his hefty contract likely made him a trade candidate as the Heat look to reshape their roster. The addition of Fontecchio could provide a fresh dynamic, as the team seeks to balance their lineup amid ongoing rumors linking them to other star players.
