Obviously, in the end, the Heat were unable to make a deal with the Portland Trail Blazers, who went and made a three-team deal with the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns instead.

According to Heat team president Pat Riley, the Heat never intended to trade Herro this summer, according to the Associated Press via NBACentral.
