Stephenson is a huge gamble, but the Heat are one of the few teams that could get the most out of his talent. Stephenson would give the team more athleticism, and will likely want to prove himself before signing a long-term deal.

A lot would have to happen for Durant to go to Miami, but it’s hard to count them out as long as Riley is running the show. They have a very good coach, a strong roster and a winning culture.
