3 Heat draft targets who would push Bam Adebayo to power forward
By Max Marshall
Yves Missi
One of my favorite players in the draft, Yves Missi is 7 feet tall with a 7-foot-6 wingspan. His bigger body and long arms provide rebounding and rim protection.
On top of that, Missi has excellent hands for a big. Miami should be looking for athletic big men to play alongside Bam Adebayo, one of the league's most athletic players. Missi can finish lobs and dunks with force, crashes the glass and boxes out. Miami needs to create more second-chance opportunities and Missi can do that.
The 20-year-old needs to polish his offense game, but that shouldn't be his focus playing next to Adbayo. If Missi focuses on catching lobs, doing the dirty work, blocking shots, and working on conditioning and rebounds, he can play an immediate role next to Adebayo.
