Chris Bosh has not played in nearly two seasons and the Miami Heat have refused to clear him because of blood clot complications. While Miami team president Pat Riley has said in past interviews that Bosh's career with the Heat is likely over, there is one Eastern Conference team that has expressed interest in signing the 11-time All Star.
It's been nearly a year since Bosh last stepped to the court for the Heat, but despite the fact that he will never be cleared by the team to resume basketball activities, he is still a part of their payroll. Miami has until February 9 to remove Bosh from their payroll, which also happens to be the one-year anniversary of the last time he played a game for them.
Bosh will be turning 33 this March and if he does make a comeback next season, then the Chicago Bulls will be at the forefront of interested suitors lining up for the two-time NBA champion. If this deal ever materializes it would reunite Bosh with his former Miami teammate Dwyane Wade, who signed with the Bulls in the off-season.
Bosh and Wade were part of the famed Miami "Big Three" alongside Lebron James. The trio turned Miami into a powerhouse during their four seasons together and appeared in four straight NBA Finals - winning two. Bosh's future is still uncertain as far as resuming his professional basketball career is concerned, but the versatile forward has expressed in past interviews that he still plans on resuming his career, even if it means leaving Miami.
Another Heat player whose name has been popping up in trade rumors is Goran Dragic. According to ESPN, the Orlando Magic were looking to acquire Dragic from Miami in exchange for center Nikola Vucevic and with a future first-round pick. The Heat rejected the trade offer as they already have a very solid center in Hassan Whiteside. According to the Sun Sentinel, Dragic's availability for this season is already dwindling, but there is still a chance that the Heat could have him moved before the trade deadline on February 23.
