As Miami Heat guard Ethan Thompson continues to pursue his NBA dream, he’ll realize another dream this weekend. Thompson, who has Puerto Rican roots on his mother’s side of the family, will be part of an NBA game in Puerto Rico when the Heat begins its six-game preseason schedule on Saturday against the Orlando Magic at Coliseo de Puerto Rico in San Juan (8 p.m., FanDuel Sports Network Sun and NBA TV). “It was more than a dream come true, for sure,” Thompson said of finding out the Heat was playing a preseason game in Puerto Rico when he joined the team in August. “I dream about playing in the NBA and then having the ability to be part of a game that’s in Puerto Rico, an island that I love and has shown love to me. And growing up in the culture, being half Puerto Rican from my mom’s side, growing up with my grandparents, it’s a blessing for sure.”
Sharp-shooter Ethan Thompson, a standout for the Orlando Magic’s G-League team last season, accepted a training camp invitation from the Heat on Wednesday. Thompson also gives the Heat a player of Puerto Rican descent on its roster, a day after the team announced it would play a preseason game against the Magic Oct. 4 in Puerto Rico. This news comes after the Heat’s G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce, announced Wednesday that it acquired the returning player rights to Thompson and a second-round pick in the 2025 NBA G League Draft from the Osceola Magic, in exchange for the returning player rights to forward Justin Champagnie, a first-round pick (16th overall) in the 2025 G League Draft and a second-round pick in the 2026 G League Draft.
