The Heats main players, aside from JB, have all been drafted (not high picks either) or have been diamond-in-the-rough signings. Duncan Robinson went undrafted! Heat signed him to the G league. Same with Nunn. Bam, Duncan, Herro, Nunn.
Then there's Danny. Almost 20 years as GM and only a single all star to his name until Tatum showed up. And no one from these past drafts aside from Grant looking like he has potential to sign in the future as a solid bench piece. I'll give Theis some love, too. He nailed the Fultz trade, he nailed the Jaylen pick. But with all the picks this team has had over the years, it is depressing to see only two have really panned out thus far and look to be future starters, and you've got MAYBE two in Theis/Grant who will stick around as solid rpers.
BOS have only Kemba, Hayward and Kanter as players not originally drafted or signed with BOS as UDFA. Kemba was a player acquired by trading for Rozier, a player Ainge drafted.
MIA have Jimmy, Dragic, Crowder, Iguodala, Olynik, Hill, Jones Jr., Leonard as players not originally drafted or signed with them as UDFA.
Heat have way more players who are not home-grown. In fact they have two guys in the rotation who became NBA starters in Boston. What an awful take.
