The buzz around the Heat as they seek to potentially add Damian Lillard has dominated NBA offseason headlines. However, if last season’s Eastern Conference Champions are unable to make a deal come to fruition, head coach Erik Spoelstra is more than happy to compete for a NBA title in 2023 with the club’s current roster.
ESPN’s Senior NBA Insider Brian Windhorst recently caught up with Spoelstra, who is part of Team USA’s coaching staff as they prepare for the FIBA Basketball World Cup. The two-time NBA champion coach feels great about his current cast of Heat players.
“We’re bringing back the majority of our players and that’s a luxury in this league. Things are so transient, things are moving fast. It seems like it’s moving faster now than even four, five, six years ago. We feel great about our group,” said Spoelstra.
