Ahead of the 2025–26 NBA season

Miami Heat are actively trying to move Rozier, but trade interest is minimal due to his $26.6m salary in the final year of his contract. A buyout is under consideration if no deal materialises, though no agreement is imminent.
Rozier endured a poor 2024–25 season, averaging 10.6 points — his lowest since 2019 — while shooting just 39.1% from the field and 29.5% from deep. Once a reliable scorer, his decline has prompted Miami to clear roster space for new signings after trading away Jimmy Butler.

Milwaukee Bucks signed Amir Coffey after waiving Damian Lillard, addressing their small forward shortage exposed in last season’s playoffs. The 27-year-old forward, a reliable shooter from the Clippers, arrives on a low-cost deal to strengthen Milwaukee’s thin rotation. Bucks struggled at small forward in their playoff exit, with Kyle Kuzma and Taurean Prince underperforming. Coffey provides depth despite modest usage and rebounding.
