"Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra wasted little time at Media Day to reveal just how much the team values and needs Kel'el Ware this season. If Spo's comments were any indication, Ware could be in line for a huge role on the Heat this year. When asked about Ware, Spo told reporters: "He's positioning himself for an important role... and he will have to prove it.""
"Of course, the biggest of questions surrounding Ware heading into the start of this season revolves around whether or not he'll be named the starting center next to Bam Adebayo. However, as Spo indicated with his most recent comments, Ware is certainly going to have to prove he deserves the starting spot. Especially considering there's a push for Nikola Jovic to be the starter at the power forward position, pushing Bam back to center."
Erik Spoelstra signaled that Kel'el Ware is positioning himself for an important role with the Miami Heat and that he must prove he deserves it. The team had high expectations for Ware over the summer, and Spoelstra publicly called out underwhelming performances. The starting lineup remains unsettled, with a decision between Ware starting beside Bam Adebayo or Nikola Jovic moving to power forward and Bam shifting to center. Training camp performance will largely determine the starter, making Ware's sophomore season pivotal to earning significant minutes.
