Miami Heat news: Midseason player grades for each Heat player

The rest

Justise Winslow

11.3 points, 6.6 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 0.6 steals, 0.5 blocks, shooting splits of .388/.222/.667

Grade: C-

Availability is important, and that’s something the Miami Heat simply haven’t gotten from Justise Winslow. He’s only played 11 games and he has struggled on the offensive end when he’s been on the floor. It’s a shame because his defense and ball-handling is exactly what this team needs right now.

James Johnson

5.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, shooting splits of .500/.455/.615

Grade: C-

James Johnson has been a half-season redemption tale so far. He missed conditioning goals to start the season and was suspended, and it took him a while to earn Spoelstra’s trust once again. Now he’s back in the rotation and has played well when he’s on the floor. If he keeps this up, his grade will rise substantially by season’s end.

Kelly Olynyk

5.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, shooting splits of .456/.417/.868

Grade: C-

Kelly Olynyk is the flip side of the James Johnson coin. Olynyk has essentially played himself out of the rotation in spite of some pretty good shooting numbers. On a team with limited depth, Olynyk needs to get himself right in the second half of the season and get back into the rotation.
