Free agent Kyle Lowry and the Heat have "mutual interest," according to ESPN's Brian Windhorst.
Lowry is coming off a terrific season with the Raptors in which he averaged career-highs in points (17.9), 3-pointers (2.4), rebounds (4.7) and assists (7.4), while adding 1.5 steals and a stingy 2.5 turnovers in 36 minutes per game. He told beat writer Michael Grange in early May, "I love this situation [in Toronto]. It's as simple as that." Any daliance with the Heat is complicated by Miami's salary-cap crunch -- in order to pay Lowry the $10+ million he'll earn annually as a free agent, at least one of Miami's Big 3 would have to opt out and restructure their contract this summer.

I saw that the other day. It was basically confirmed to be click bait.
I think the Heat this past year and it looks like going forward are going about this all wrong. They need to build more depth to allow these guys some rest. Pat Riley seems to be in love with getting guys that have name value.
