Miami Heat: Tyler Herro, Dewayne Dedmon, & Max Strus Will Feast This Year

However, he doesn’t get that look in transition without the hustle of one Max Strus. Think about it.

Where Jordan Nwora of the Bucks thought he had an easy open-floor layup or dunk, Strus’s hustle not only challenged but forced a miss (maybe a block, but probably a foul no-call, but who’s counting). This is what wound up giving Tyler the time and the ability to get the quick but optimal defensive look to get that shot off in time.

It was the perfect sequence of events and a perfect illustration of how this bench is not only explosive, but multiple and capable of making an impact for the Miami Heat on both sides of the ball on a nightly basis. Coach Spoelstra must’ve shed a tear watching it all play out.

While, again, everyone on that bench will be huge and depended on to do their part, Dedmon, Herro, and Strus really stepped it up in the first game of 82.

Everyone up and down the roster showed their stuff though and hopefully, they can keep it up as they head into their next contest on Saturday against Indiana.
