After finishing as the No. 8 seed in the East and going through the play-in tournament last year, the Heat could use a little more firepower to get them back toward the top of the East.
Kuzma, 29, averaged 22.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 4.2 assists and made 35.5 percent of his catch-and-shoot threes last season. He’d be an ideal starting power forward between Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebyao as a scoring threat who can space the floor and serve as a willing passer.
Signing Kentvaious Caldwell-Pope was great for Orlando, although he does little to improve its offensive creation issue. Bringing in a proven point guard like Malcom Brogdon (15.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 41.2 percent from three) would inject some life into this Orlando offense while Richardson is a versatile wing the Magic can plug into the rotation.
The Wizards get a nice haul of young players and draft picks in return for their veterans. Cole Anthony, Jett Howard and Nikola Jović are all between 20 and 24 years of age while Robinson’s shooting makes life easier for everyone. Orlando also gets a future first-round pick from Miami, which depends on when previous draft selections will be conveyed.
