3. Courtney Lee

Lee is a solid perimeter player that could fit very well in Miami next season. He shot 37 percent from three in his 2015-16 campaign but upped that average to 44 percent in the playoffs before getting knocked off by the Heat. Lee is a 6’5″ shooting guard that would excel coming off the bench behind Dwyane Wade. Though his numbers have never been flashy, the Heat could use a player like Lee in a variety of ways. The problem with Lee, is that the Heat simply may not be able to afford him.
According to David Baumann of Basketball Insiders:
“The versatile shooting guard (Lee) could garner somewhere around $11-$14 million per year on the open market.”
That would make it tough for the Heat to sign him as they already have the tall task of re-signing max player Hassan Whiteside and the veteran Wade. If Lee is willing to take less money, the Heat should certainly look into getting a deal done.
