Heat lock in Davion Mitchell on multi-year deal

Miami Herald's Barry Jackson reports the Heat may wait on extending Davion Mitchell to see how he performs and whether top free agents would take their midlevel exception next summer.

Miami will likely keep its final standard roster spot vacant after John Konchar signed an Exhibit 9 deal with the Knicks, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports. That keeps flexibility for in-season buyout targets.

A hypothetical three-team trade would send Kyrie Irving from Dallas to Miami, pairing him with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo.
