Due to the special attributes of the contract, may the Heat wing pitcher become a potential trader?

According to Forbes sports reporter Evan Sidery, the Miami Heat are seeking to trade the team's wing pitcher Duncan Robinson's expiration contract worth $19.8 million. Sidery said: The contract is a partial guarantee contract, and any team including the Heat can save $10 million in salary space as long as they cut him by July 8. Sidery also said that if Miami decides to chase a star-level player this summer, Robinson's special attributes make him an important bargaining chip, which will provide a great help to the team in terms of matching salary and creating trading flexibility.

In the NBA regular season this season, Robinson made a total of 74 appearances in 82 games, averaging 24.1 minutes per game, averaging 11 points, 2.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 1.2 turnovers and 1.8 fouls. He shot 43.7%, three-point shooting percentage 39.3%, and 88.7% free throw shooting percentage. In the playoffs, Robinson made a total of 4 appearances, averaging 14.7 minutes per game, averaging 4.2 points, 1 rebound, 0.2 assists, and 1.5 turnovers and 1.5 fouls. His shooting percentage was 35.7%, three-point shooting percentage was 33.3%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 75%.

On the one hand, Robinson's performance this season can only be considered sloppy. His role on the court is relatively limited. His scoring ability is relatively average, and his contribution to the defensive end is relatively limited. He is a player with distinctive functions and characteristics. On the other hand, Robinson's ability in outside shooting is actually quite good. He was able to maintain a very stable outside shooting percentage during the regular season, and he seemed to have made some progress in passing and supporting, and he can still play some role on the offensive end.

However, in the playoffs, Robinson's performance was simply terrible. He did not perform as well as his due level. His performance on both offense and defense can be considered a mess. Moreover, this season is not the first time Robinson has performed like this during the playoffs. His performance in the playoffs last season was also very bad, and he was also beaten by his opponents on both offense and defense. For the Heat, Robinson's role in the team is becoming increasingly useless, and his limited playing time in the playoffs also proves that the team may also be considering giving up. For some teams that want to "show bad", Robinson's contract attributes are indeed worth paying attention to. Taking his contract and winning future draft picks will not harm the team's long-term development. I don’t know which team Robinson will play for next season.
