MIddleton on last year of contract. Player option. Had a bad season.
They won a chip with him. They got their money's worth.
We are about the future.
Miami will turn Lowrey and Herro into Lillard. Those fuckers will torture us forever.
And don't sleep on the Heat and think this is a party. I hope it is, but one never knows with them.

Let's review Miami's cap sheet cause it's just as fun: Lowry making $29M next year, Duncan Robinson $18M (plus 2 extra years at same rate after that), Oladipo $9.5M.
For comparison, Knicks have Brunson at $26M and way not as fat, Josh Hart will land around the $18M mark, and iHart will make $8M (to fill the same MLE slot Victor did).
It gets much worse. In 2025-26 season Heat could still have $140M committed to just 4 players including a 37 year old Jimmy Butler @ $52.5M, Herro @ $31M, Duncan Robinson @ $20M and Bam @ $37M.
