Nets' Haywood Highsmith: Traded to Brooklyn
The Heat traded Highsmith (knee) to the Nets along with a 2032 second-round pick in exchange for a protected 2026 second-round pick, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
Highsmith was a big part of Miami's rotation in 2024-25, as he averaged 6.5 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.5 blocks and 1.2 three-pointers on 45.8 percent shooting from the field in 24.6 minutes per night. In Brooklyn, Highsmith will be joining a rebuilding team, and he'll be competing for minutes with guys like Terance Mann, Jalen Wilson and Noah Clowney off the bench. Highsmith underwent surgery Aug. 8 to repair a meniscal tear in his right knee and is currently questionable to be ready by Opening Night.

While it was an improved effort by the Heat, they came up short again, falling behind 2-0 in the series. Game 3 will be in Miami on Saturday, with the Heat looking to grab some much-needed momentum.

Heat's Haywood Highsmith: Notches 17 points
Highsmith finished with 17 points (6-7 FG, 5-6 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 121-112 loss to the Cavaliers in Game 2 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
After a very quiet Game 1 with seven points in 31 minutes, Highsmith and Nikola Jovic gave the Heat a spark off the bench Wednesday with a combined 28 points. Highsmith is typically a low-usage role player, so fantasy managers shouldn't put too much stock into this outlier performance.
