"Even though the Heat weren't very successful as a team this preseason, there were some bright spots. The play of Norman Powell was certainly one of them. Powell closed the preseason by averaging 16 points on 45 percent shooting from the field and 40 percent shooting from 3-point range. If nothing else, it does seem as if the Heat will be able to rely on Powell as a strong contributor to the team."
"Why is Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra so critical of Kel'el Ware? I understand he's trying to push him to new heights, and obviously believes in his talent, but it is quite strange that Spo has publicly called him out twice in the matter of a few months. It's certainly not ideal. Throughout the preseason, Ware had a strong showing. But when Spo "calls out" Ware, he answers. It's just an odd pattern, one that demands monitoring."
"The Miami Heat officially closed their preseason slate with a laughable 0-6 record. Thankfully, none of that will matter once the regular season begins. Before opening night arrives, let's look back at three exciting and two concerning observations from the Heat's (possibly) back-breaking preseason. The sample size is extremely small, but it's hard for the Heat fan base not to be excited about Kasparas Jakucionis. In the one game he played extended minutes in the preseason, he looked like a real steal. In that game where he logged 25 minutes, Jakucionis finished with eight points, 10 assists, and two steals. He was just"
The Miami Heat finished the preseason 0-6, but preseason results are unlikely to dictate regular-season outcomes. Norman Powell averaged 16 points on 45 percent shooting and 40 percent from three, projecting as a reliable contributor and potential trade asset if the team struggles. Erik Spoelstra publicly criticized rookie Kel'el Ware multiple times despite Ware's strong preseason showings, creating an odd pattern that warrants monitoring and could influence playing time or development. Kasparas Jakucionis impressed in limited action, recording eight points, 10 assists and two steals in a 25-minute outing, suggesting valuable depth in ball-handling and playmaking.
