Miami Heat’s Summer League is telling of the team’s direction

The Miami Heat appeared completely lost in their 2018 Las Vegas NBA Summer League debut.

After notching a 2-1 record in Sacramento’s California Classic, Miami’s game was rife with bad tendencies and poor play in their fourth outing together.

Summer League is very much a place for trial and error.

Miami, without a selection in the 2018 NBA Draft, fielded a team largely comprised of undrafted talent, two-way players and rookie standout Bam Adebayo. Where other teams have a de facto leader – Philadelphia’s Furkan Korkmaz, Phoenix’s DeAndre Ayton – Miami is a work in progress, hunting for diamonds in the rough.
