The Miami Heat have landed amazing talent in Kendrick Nunn, KZ Okpala, Tyler Herro, and Bam Adebayo, but they aren’t the biggest Heat finds to date.
The Big One
The Miami Heat just have noses and eyes for talent I guess, because none of those are even the biggest examples. The biggest example here is an undrafted guy out of Michigan, who before arriving in Ann Arbor, was a division III basketball player. That guy is Duncan Robinson.
In just a part of his first full NBA season, Robinson has not only stepped in to become the best shooter for the Miami Heat and one of the premier shooters in the entire league, but we believe he just might be the best from deep in the league at the moment.
When you consider the fact that Klay Thompson hasn’t played in a year, neither has Kevin Durant, and that Steph Curry wasn’t even off a minutes restriction put into place as he returned from injury before the season was suspended for coronavirus, Duncan Robinson has to take that title at the moment.
Also consider this, on almost nine attempts from deep per game, Robinson is sinking nearly 45 percent of them. In real life, that looks like this. If he shoots around 10 threes per game, five of them will drop.
That is where the next part of this equation comes into play.
