Miami Heat big man Meyers Leonard has recently been involved in several rumors as he heads to free agency in the upcoming offseason. The Faze Clan member previously stirred the pot as hosted a live video on his Twitch page with a title that says it was his last stream from Miami.

Despite the speculations, the 28-year-old forward still doesn't completely rule out a return to South Beach for next season:

“Now, I certainly have to continue to be aggressive and continue to advance as a player, but I know how impactful I can be. There’s times I watch film, and I’m like, ‘Holy s***, no wonder he just got an easy layup,’ because I’m pulling the 5 away from the rim. I shoot above 40 percent from three the last three seasons. So, you know what, I’m blessed. I’m thankful. This offseason is short, but I start Monday and I’m going to grind my tail off. I’ll be ready to go. The NBA is a business. I think there’s mutual interest between Miami and I, but we’ll see. There’s other teams that are very interested. I’m in a good spot. At the end of the day, I’m simply blessed and I’m very, very thankful for everything that’s been thrown my way,” he said.

All throughout his eight-year playing career, Meyers Leonard was never a player who chased his numbers on the stat sheet. He certainly can do better than his norms of 6.1 points and 5.1 rebounds last season but he remains committed to prioritizing team success and winning above all else.

The former Illinois product knows the value that he brings to the table similar to what he provided for the Heat squad which exceeded expectations and unexpectedly reached the 2020 NBA Finals only to lose to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Only he can determine the right fit for himself, be it with the Heat or in another team, as he continues to weigh his options for next season.
