Just five regular Miami Heat players were available for last night’s game at the Houston Rockets. Of the newcomers signed to 10-day contracts who played, Kyle Guy was the best of the bunch. (Mario Chalmers didn’t play.) Guy promptly hit three 3-pointers after checking into the game in the first quarter.
It wasn’t just the 3-point shooting, though. Guy drove into the lane and found Omer Yurtseven for easy baskets. He drove into the lane and scored in traffic. He played about as well as anyone could’ve reasonably expected.
Guy’s strong debut with the Heat led some to wonder — is there a chance the University of Virginia alum sticks with Miami?
