Miami Heat Rumors: 3 star players that Miami could pair with Jimmy Butler for the 19-20 season

#2 Kevin Love

Kevin Love is expected to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers

After losing LeBron James last summer, the Cleveland Cavaliers responded by announcing its intentions to contend - and the Cavs backed up their stance by signing Kevin Love to a huge four-year, $120 million contract. However, things quickly fell apart without James, and the franchise has since hit the reset button.

Love now appears the odd-man-out on an increasingly youthful Cleveland roster, and despite penning his extension last summer, his new deal doesn't kick into gear into this season. Love also turns 31 in September, and the former All-Star probably doesn't want to spend his remaining prime years on a team that has no chance to compete.

The Heat would need to send Goran Dragic and James Johnson to Cleveland to get complete a trade, although neither is too much of a loss. And, if Love can reach the same level of performances he showed during his time in Minnesota, the Heat could be a real force in the East.
