Though the Denver Nuggets were not initially on his list of preferred teams, it seems inevitable that Butler would attract their interest. The Nuggets’ management is actively looking to bring in another prominent player to join forces with Nikola Jokic. Recent rumors have even connected Zach LaVine of the Chicago Bulls as a potential target for Denver.
NBA expert Chris Mannix has outlined reasons why the Heat should consider engaging in discussions with the Nuggets.

“Could Michael Porter Jr. become an appealing option in a deal with Denver? He’s an exceptional offensive talent, and I believe he could achieve even more within the Miami system,” Mannix explained on The Bill Simmons podcast.
“It means sacrificing your cap space flexibility, which is a tough decision,” Mannix added. “But his offensive skills are so impressive. He also seems to align well with the team’s timeline.”
Mannix accurately assesses this potential trade scenario. There’s little doubt that Denver would consider trading Porter for the six-time All-Star, while the Heat need to evaluate their confidence in the young forward’s potential.
If Coach Erik Spoelstra and his team see Porter as a possible future All-Star, he represents one of the best immediate impact options available for the Heat.
