Following the Heat’s Norman Powell pickup, they could be just a piece or two away from making noise in the Eastern Conference ...

While Norman Powell is a huge upgrade, the Miami Heat's frontcourt behind Bam Adebayo and Kel'el Ware is a massive issue.

The Miami Heat were a popular (future) destination for Bradley Beal, but after acquiring Norman Powell, that may no longer be the case.
