Pelle Larsson has one more season left on his first NBA contract, and it’s a team option worth $2.3 million for next season. Larsson becomes eligible to sign an extension with the Heat starting on July 6 after the Heat picks up the option in his contract ahead of the June 29 option deadline, and the window to sign an extension remains open until June 30, 2027. Larsson’s situation is just one of a few important extension decisions that the Heat’s front office will need to address in the coming months. Norman Powell is eligible for an extension from the Heat until June 30, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Tyler Herro become eligible for extensions this upcoming offseason. “Just being consistent, reliable,” Larsson said of how he views his role with the Heat. “On defense, not getting beat too many times and messing up things. Like really, I’m a relief player a lot of times. Like relief points on the offensive end and don’t allow any relief points on the defensive end. So, stay locked in and then get some cheap ones on the offensive end.”
