Panathinaikos star Kendrick Nunn revealed that Miami Heat fans continue to ask him about a possible return to South Beach, even though he remains under contract with the Greek club.
The American guard shared a post on X describing his daily encounters with Heat supporters.
“Bump into at LEAST 3-5 people a day asking me when I’m coming back! Miami Heat, the city is talking!”

The city is talking!— Kendrick Nunn (@nunnbetter_) July 23, 2026
Nunn recently signed a contract extension with Panathinaikos that keeps him in Athens through 2028.
The 29-year-old spent two seasons with the Miami Heat from 2019 to 2021 after beginning his professional career as an undrafted player with the Santa Cruz Warriors in the G League.
He made an immediate impact in Miami, averaging 15.3 points in 67 starts during the 2019–20 season, followed by 14.6 points in 56 appearances (44 starts) in 2020–21.
The Heat have recently entered a new era following the arrival of Giannis Antetokounmpo, but Nunn’s popularity among the fanbase clearly remains strong.
