With the NBA regular season concluded, teams are now focused on the upcoming 2026 NBA Draft. The Miami Heat are projected to select Koa Peat, a forward from the University of Arizona, with the No. 13 overall pick. Peat has demonstrated his potential during the season, averaging 13.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game. His athleticism and versatility make him an appealing choice for the Heat, especially given their fast-paced playing style. The 2026 NBA Draft Lottery will take place on May 10 in Chicago, followed by the draft combine later that week, setting the stage for teams to finalize their strategies for the draft.
