Wow. Insiders seemed to expect that Lillard wouldn’t publicize a specific demand like this. This really hurts Portland’s chances at a good return.
Yeah it’s pretty insane. I really don’t know what kind of return they can get from the Heat.
Something like Herro, Caleb Martin, and a mix of FRP and SRPs?
I’d figure Lowry would be in the package.
Lowry could be a good mentor for Scoot, but Miami will have to send a lot of draft capital to justify paying that salary for a backup PG
Who knows what the Blazers will ask for, but the Heat should be giving up FRPs just to get off Herro’s contract let alone get a star back in return.
OKC can get involved with the MIA 2025 pick they own.
