"In his preseason debut for the Miami Heat, Kasparas Jakucionis showed plenty of flashes that he could one day develop into the star playmaking point guard that fans have long desired. After an up-and-down summer league performance, Jakucionis gave Heat fans much to look forward to in his 25 minutes played against the San Antonio Spurs. Jakucionis finished with eight points, 10 assists, and two steals against the Spurs in his preseason debut."
"Jakucionis is a pure point guard by every definition of it, and his playmaking prowess jumps off the screen when watching him play. Jakucionis finished with 10 assists on the night; no one else on the team finished with more than three. Perhaps the biggest encouraging sign for the Heat was that he only had two turnovers. A 10:2 assist-to-turnover ratio will get it done for Jakucionis, especially after a summer in which he truly struggled in that aspect of his game."
