The Miami Heat’s Summer League roster is made up of fourteen players with varying experience.
Six of those players were undrafted free agents (UDFAs) that played in the NCAA last season. Summer League is a chance for younger players like these to cut their teeth against NBA-level talent and prove themselves worthy of a contract; it’s essentially a job interview for NBA-hopefuls.
On Miami’s roster this summer is former Notre Dame point guard Matt Farrell. As an Irish fan, I was ecstatic to hear that Farrell would be joining the Heat’s Summer League team, after not be selected in the 2018 NBA Draft.
