Before they make any decisions, they want to see what Riley can do in free agency.

According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports, Riley is expected to pursue Toronto Raptors’ point guard  Kyle Lowry, Clevleand Cavaliers’ forward Luol Deng, Washington Wizards center Marcin Gortat and swingman Trevor Ariza and Utah Jazz forward Marvin Williams.

"Now, it is on Riley to replenish a roster that failed in a five-game NBA Finals loss to San Antonio. As Yahoo Sports reported on Saturday, James is pursuing a full max contract extension, beginning at $20.6 million – or something slightly below. Bosh and Wade will need to take pay cuts – Wade’s significant – to create the cap space for Miami to be competitive in pursuit of free agent targets that include Kyle Lowry, Luol Deng, Marcin Gortat, Trevor Ariza and Marvin Williams."
