The Miami Heat traded forward Haywood Highsmith to the Brooklyn Nets, the latter team announced Friday.
The Heat also sent a 2032 second-round pick to the Nets in exchange for a protected 2026 second-round pick, per the report.
Highsmith, 28, is recovering from surgery last week to repair a meniscus tear in his right knee. He was expected to be sidelined for eight to 10 weeks.
He sustained the injury while training in his native Baltimore. He is entering the final season of the two-year, $10.8 million contract he signed last summer.
Highsmith averaged a career-high 6.5 points and 1.5 assists to go along with 3.4 rebounds in 74 games (42 starts) with the Heat in 2024-25.
He has career averages of 5.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 20.0 minutes in 218 games (80 starts) with the Philadelphia 76ers (2019) and Heat.
