Heat Engaged in Serious Trade Talks With Lakers For Deal Centered on Andrew Wiggins
The NBA offseason is heating up as the Miami Heat and Los Angeles Lakers engage in trade discussions centered on forward Andrew Wiggins, according to insider Anthony F. Irwin.
As of Wednesday afternoon, Irwin reported that the Lakers have checked in on Wiggins, with negotiations advancing beyond initial inquiries.
While a deal isn’t imminent, the ongoing conversations suggest both teams are exploring a potential blockbuster move ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft.
Wiggins, a versatile wing with a $28.2 million salary for the 2025-26 season, could serve as a key piece for the Lakers, who are looking to bolster their roster around LeBron James and Luka Doncic.
The Heat, meanwhile, may see this as an opportunity to reshape their lineup, potentially packaging Wiggins with other assets to address roster needs or acquire a star.

Irwin’s sources indicate the talks have gained traction since his earlier report, though the details remain fluid.
For the Lakers, Wiggins’ scoring ability and defensive potential could complement their core, while the Heat might leverage the trade to gain flexibility or draft capital.
Fans are buzzing with anticipation, though skepticism persists given the complexity of aligning salaries and assets.
With the draft starting on Wednesday night, the pressure is on for both teams to finalize terms. Irwin promises a link to further details soon, keeping the NBA world on edge in the meantime.
As the clock ticks, this developing storyline could redefine both franchises’ trajectories, making it a must-watch saga in the evolving 2025 offseason landscape.
