"Over the last few games, as the Heat has dropped four games in a row and five of their last six, Ware hasn't been put in a position to impact the game as much as he could. Ware has played less than 22 minutes in four of the last six games. For how much he can impact the game at the center position, that's simply not enough time on the floor."
"The fact that Ware hasn't been getting his minutes almost certainly speaks to the fact that Spo still doesn't completely trust the young big man. And that's not surprising or a knock on Ware. The Heat clearly values Ware, but the way Spo utilizes his rotation, he often leans most on continuity and trust. Right now, for as much as Ware has flashed so far this season, he hasn't gotten to the point where he's completely earned Spo's trust."
Kel'el Ware has seen limited minutes recently, often less than 22 minutes in four of the last six games and under 20 in some contests, reducing his impact at center. Miami has dropped four games in a row and five of its last six as Ware's floor time declined. Coach Erik Spoelstra emphasizes continuity and trust in rotations and appears hesitant to fully rely on the young big man. Ware has shown significant development and flashes of high-level play but has not yet fully earned Spoelstra's trust. Increasing Ware's role and allotting at least 25 minutes per game would leverage his frontcourt value and help team performance.
