The latest NBA trade rumors hinted that Miami Heat is eyeing Memphis Grizzlies' Lance Stephenson and Oklahoma City Thunder's Russell Westbrook after they lost their key player Dwyane Wade to Chicago Bulls.

Australian News Network reported that Heat is looking out for the best shooting guard and might think of picking up Stephenson for the position. Reports claimed that currently, heis the most viable option for Miami after having an impressive record last season with 14.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game.

Ideally, the Miami Heat would be the team to help him build a good career in the future. In fact, even Lance Stephenson has expressed interest that he would join the team if an appropriate offer is made.

On the other hand, Sports Rageous reported that the Miami Heat might trade its three players to bring on board Oklahoma City Thunder's point guard Russell Westbrook.  Reports hinted that they are trying to rebuild their team with new potential players and might exchange Goran Dragic, Justise Winslow, and Josh Richardson in order to get Russell Westbrook.

There are reports that Miami's main attraction of the trio trade for the Thunder will be Dragic with an average of 14.1 points, 5.8 assists, and 3.8 rebounds per game. Also, Winslow is expected to provide a better small forward position to Oklahoma City. Game N Guide stated that Richardson will add more value to Miami's proposal as he is known for his versatility.

Moreover, other trade rumors teased that the Miami might even force Chris Bosh to retire in order to create space for Westbrook. Besides, reports claimed that even Thunder is eyeing out for best offers for Russell Westbrook after they lost their key player, Kevin Durant to the Golden State Warriors.

If the trade between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Miami Heat works out, then it might be one of the best deals this NBA season.
