Miami Heat Acquires Terry Rozier in Trade with Charlotte Hornets
Kyle Lowry Departs as Heat Target All-Star Acquisition This Summer
The Miami Heat have acquired guard Terry Rozier from the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for veteran guard Kyle Lowry and a protected 2027 first-round pick, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. The move comes as the Heat reportedly pursue an All-Star-level player in a trade this summer.
Rozier, 28, is a talented guard who has averaged 20.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 4.2 assists per game this season. He is a good three-point shooter (36.4% this season) and can also create for others. He should be a good fit with the Heat, who need another scorer and playmaker.
Lowry, 36, is a veteran point guard who has been a key part of the Heat's success in recent years. He is a good defender and passer, but his production has declined this season. He is averaging 12.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game.
The Heat are hoping that Rozier can help them take the next step. They have a talented roster, but they need another star to compete with the top teams in the Eastern Conference.
