Miami Heat: Max Strus’s Elite Marksmanship Certainly Helps Him Stand Out

For starters, you can see how anyone could choose Max Strus in the spot. He has an elite ability.

The way that he can shoot the ball off of multiple platforms and in many facets is extraordinary for a guy that had to bounce around to find a home in the league, especially with his size. At a legitimate 6’5″, Strus can catch and shoot, pull up off the dribble, or spot up off of kick-outs.

There is no range shot that he isn’t comfortable with.

You also like the fact that Strus is a sneaky athlete.

Though his shooting is his gift, he has the ability to rise up and finish with real elevation at the rim as well. As mentioned above by BR, his defense is improving, but he isn’t a good defender yet.

That’s a huge part of the reason why Vincent may have the edge on him. To briefly go into the whole summary for Vincent’s case, he isn’t elite in any one area like Strus is, but he is very good in all areas.
