2019 NBA Re-Draft: Tyler Herro jumps up, Miami Heat find replacement
By Jack Simone
A little while ago, we re-drafted the 2020 NBA Draft to see where everyone fell. The Miami Heat ended up getting Devin Vassell, while Precious Achiuwa fell to pick 30.
Today, we will be taking a look at the 2019 NBA Draft, where the Miami Heat originally selected Tyler Herro. In all likelihood, Herro won’t end up on the Miami Heat in this re-draft.
In the 2020 re-draft, we looked at their original starting lineup for that year, and what their new starting lineup would be. In this re-draft, we will instead look at how their pick affected what their lineup looks like today.

Since most of the players from the 2020 draft have developed into solid players, it’s likely that a lot of them could be starters. So, we’re going to see how much team’s new picks would have affected where they are at now as a team.
The 2019 NBA Draft was chockful of elite NBA talent. There are great rotational players, some stars, and even some players who could be franchise cornerstones.
The Miami Heat held the 13th pick in 2019, and as mentioned, they took Tyler Herro. However, is Herro good enough to have been picked up earlier in this draft?
It will be close, but all signs point to yes on that question. There’s just so much talent in the 2019 Draft that it is hard to tell where anyone will fall to.
It’s also important to note that the team making the pick will be the team that ultimately got the player selected at that position. For example, the Lakers technically selected De’Andre Hunter at four, but everyone knows that the Hawks really made that pick.
Without further adieu, it’s time to get drafting. Who will get picked where in this 2019 NBA Re-Draft?
