The Miami Heat had a successful NBA Summer League Circuit, even if they didn’t win the whole thing in Las Vegas. What they were able to do though, was harvest and develop some incredible talent.
While that was the case for some of the newer faces, some of the familiar faces found moments to excel across the circuit. The main culprit here was Max Strus.
Exploding across a few games and with great abundance from deep, Strus continued to prove how he earned his spot on the Miami Heat’s roster for the coming season. He would finish with averages of 20.8 points per game, 6.3 rebounds per game, and 2.5 assists per game on 39.1 percent shooting from the floor and 40 percent shooting from deep on 11.3 attempts per contest.
Here’s the thing though, he wasn’t awarded an All-Summer League Team spot, on either the first or second teams. Was Strus robbed there?
That answer is a twisted one, but we can sort it out. Why didn’t the upcoming Miami Heat sniper get recognized?
