Adding a scorer like Beal would lessen the scoring load on Heat star Jimmy Butler, who has always preferred to play as a two-way player. The lack of scoring was evident during the Heat's loss to the Denver Nuggets in the NBA Finals. The Heat were unable to win because Butler struggled as a scorer.
Beal is in the second season of a five-year, $251-million contract. He has a no-trade clause.
