The Miami Heat is really trying to acquire Toronto Raptors’ point guard, Kyle Lowry.
Sources told me that the Heat & Raptors are currently engaged in negotiations, the Heat has done the closest to a final offer. They are trying to expand this business to find a first one that they can send to Toronto.
GM is waiting for Lowry’s resolution before the frenzy begins@ 5ReasonsSports

Another obstacle: making an agreement that allows them to stay with André Iguodala. They don’t want to lose Kelly and Andre in a potential deal, they tell me.

Lowry, 35, is probably on his last day as a Raptors player.
The point guard is collecting 17.4 points, 7.5 assists and 5.6 rebounds per game this season. He started in 37 competitions for the Raptors.
Still, the Raptors had a disappointing year. The team holds an 18-26 record and is the No. 11 seed in the Eastern Conference.
The Raptors want the Heat to include rising star Tyler Herro in a deal for Lowry. However, Heat is not willing to part ways with the second year.
The Heat is trying to get back to the NBA finals. Adding a veteran star like Lowry would increase your chances of competing in the Eastern Conference.
