The Sun Sentinel is reporting that, following today's buyout from Washington, Bibby plans on signing with Miami. That would give them the pure PG they've been lacking.

MIAMI —
A pair of independent sources have confirmed to the Sun Sentinel that veteran point guard Mike Bibby is leaning toward signing with the Miami Heat in the wake of Monday's buyout from the Washington Wizards.
Bibby, acquired last week from the Atlanta Hawks at the NBA trading deadline, agreed, according to multiple reports, to bypass his $6.2 million 2011-12 salary from the Wizards in order to move to a contender.
Tuesday is the deadline for players to be waived in order to appear on another team's playoff roster. If released by 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, players can sign with new teams at any time before the season finale and become playoff eligible.
Bibby, 32, with his playmaking and shooting, would provide the Heat with an instant upgrade over current starting point guard Mario Chalmers, although he would not address the Heat's lack of defensive deterrence at the position.
