According to a report published on November 11, 2026, the Miami Heat are shifting their focus to a two-time All-Star target after a potential trade for Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving appears unlikely to materialize.
The report indicates that the Heat had explored the possibility of acquiring Irving but have since pivoted to alternative options. The identity of the two-time All-Star was not disclosed in the initial report.
Irving, who played in the 2024 NBA Finals with the Mavericks, remains under contract with Dallas. The Heat's front office continues to evaluate roster improvements ahead of the trade deadline.
