#1 Goran Dragic
Goran Dragic almost left the Heat back in June, before a miscommunication ensured that the point guard stayed in Miami. However, Dragic is entering the final year of the 5-year $85 million contract he signed back in 2015, and the Slovenian will be needed in any deal to acquire a second star.
The 33-year-old has suffered multiple injuries over the past 12 months and played just 36 times during the 2018-19 campaign, but is just one season removed from his first All-Star appearance.

Thanks to his expiring contract, rebuilding teams such as the OKC Thunder will be interested in Dragic. A potential contender could also move to improve their options at point guard.
Ultimately, Dragic remains a capable performer when injury free, but Miami need to offload the veteran so that they can bring in a younger second star.
