Dillon Brooks of the Memphis Grizzlies may have had a dismal postseason, but that doesn’t mean another NBA team won’t make an investment in him.
According to recent reports, Brooks won’t be with the team when the new season begins in the autumn because he doesn’t have much longer to play for the Grizzlies.
Where will he land, then?
The Miami Heat are presently the betting favorites to sign Brooks, according NBACentral and BetOnline.ag.

There has been a lot of discussion about Brooks’ recent play as well as the trouble he got himself into due to the public comments he made against LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers.
But nobody should disregard the fact that the young man is a talented basketball player.
For the season, he averaged 14.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.6 assists.
He also proved to be a dependable defender.
Although his season didn’t finish well and he caused trouble for both himself and the team, he still might have a bright future in the league.
For a while now, The Heat have been close to making some adjustments.
They didn’t do much during the previous summer because they wanted to see whether they could have a successful year with the group they already had.
They are currently engaged in an unexpectedly successful postseason run.
But after that, they might ultimately decide to bring in Brooks and other new talent.
Brooks would probably be a little more cautious about what he tells the media and would put more of an emphasis on his performance.
That might be the greatest option for him and the squad he eventually joins.
