The Miami Heat returns to the court for the start of training camp Sept. 25. This week’s position-by-position breakdowns help preview the beginning of camp. The focus of the second position is shooting guard. Dion Waiters is expected to return from ankle surgery to start at this spot, with Dwyane Wade and Wayne Ellington seen as Waiters’ primary backups. Josh Richardson, Tyler Johnson, Rodney McGruder and Derrick Jones Jr. also could play at shooting guard, but they are more realistic options at other positions. Malik Newman, who accepted a training camp invite to be part of Miami’s 20-man preseason roster, is more likely to end up as part of the organization’s G League affiliate in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, than on the Heat to start the regular season.
