The Heat made one of the more underrated moves of the NBA offseason on Monday, acquiring Powell in a three-team trade with the Los Angeles Clippers and Utah Jazz.
In his initial news conference, the Jazz's new team president declared that his team wouldn't be tanking in 2025-26. Since then, the team has traded two starters and bought out a former Sixth Man of the Year.
Off the bench or in the starting lineup, Beal could slide into a combo guard role to take pressure off Giannis Antetokounmpo and help run the second unit.
