Kyrie Irving could be traded to Miami Heat in mock deal
Summary

An NBA writer proposed a trade sending Kyrie Irving to the Miami Heat, with the Dallas Mavericks acquiring Tyler Herro, Pelle Larsson, and the No. 13 pick in return. The trade idea comes ahead of the upcoming draft on June 23. If the Heat were to acquire Irving, they might reduce their chances of pursuing Giannis Antetokounmpo, as trading Herro would impact their ability to acquire another star. The Celtics could benefit if the Heat's moves do not lead to Antetokounmpo's arrival.
