The Miami Heat has been frequently linked to free agent star DeMar DeRozan this offseason. With the Heat missing out on LeBron James, who chose the rival Philadelphia 76ers in free agency, DeRozan, 36, has become one of top fallback options for Miami.
DeRozan has been a free agent since being let go by the Sacramento Kings earlier this month. A six-time All-Star, DeRozan is widely expected to land a hopeful championship-contending team.
Meanwhile, the Heat is also keeping tabs on fellow free agent star Bradley Beal, who is coming off one unceremonious season with the Los Angeles Clippers, and Dallas Mavericks star Klay Thompson, who has emerged as Miami's highest priority target. The Heat's interest in Thompson may be slowing down its pursuit of DeRozan.
