The hope is that he learns enough from Jimmy to be the Culture type player going forward.

He's a winner. Totally makes sense for this organization to take.

Not my cup of tea, though. Would have rather traded down closer to the end of the 1st round, don't think the drop off is that high.



Thought that was Caleb tbh



Caleb will probably start at the 4, with Haywood/Jovic backing him up.


His worst position. There’s a reason he broke out more once Love arrived

I like the player. I like him getting this opportunity. I like adding him as a potential future role player on the Heat. I hate the pick.

Jovic and even Highsmith are a better fit than any of the PFs on the board around our pick. Not mad at Jaquez if he's bigger than Caleb

Rumor has it Jaquez like Herro and like Wade was a killer in private workouts.

Jovic and Jaquez Jr are going to be some crazy awesome duo who compliment each other beautifully
