MIAMI (AP) — The Miami Heat have traded Meyers Leonard and a second-round pick to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Trevor Ariza. Leonard has been away from the Heat for more than a week after a video surfaced of him using an anti-Semitic slur while livestreaming a video game. He has apologized for the incident. Ariza has not played in an NBA game just for over a year, last appearing on March 10, 2020 for Portland. The Thunder have no plans to keep Leonard. The draft pick they get is in 2027, and Oklahoma City has collected more than 30 picks to use over the next seven years through various other trades.
