What happened: The Miami Heat's team account said Saturday that Bobby Portis was a passionate supporter of the franchise as a kid, months after Miami acquired the forward in a trade with Milwaukee. Portis previously said the drive down I-95 from Milwaukee to Miami partly inspired his new jersey number with the team.

Why it matters: The post continues Miami's rollout of Portis as part of the franchise following the trade becoming official. Portis joins a Heat roster reshaped by an active offseason, including Giannis Antetokounmpo's arrival in Miami.

What to watch: Portis is set to begin his first season with Miami in 2026-27.
