""The easy answer is to say [Norman Powell] or [Andrew Wiggins] or [Bam Adebayo]," he said. "I think the young guys are the ones that are going to step up. I think [Nikola Jovic], in specific. I think he can really benefit from it, he's one of the guys that can do a lot on the court, whether it's bringing the ball up and getting out in transition, passing, scoring, attacking downhill. He can do a lot of it.""

Tyler Herro will be out at the start of the season with a foot injury, leaving the Heat without one of their top offensive players. Miami has finished in the bottom third offensively for three straight seasons, so replacing Herro's production will be an early challenge. The team will need collective contributions, with Bam Adebayo, Norman Powell and Andrew Wiggins expected to assume larger roles. Nikola Jovic emerged as a surprising candidate to benefit, with strengths in ball-handling, transition, passing, scoring and downhill attacking. Jovic has durability questions, never playing more than 46 games and missing 27 games last season with a fractured hand, but he offers play-finishing ability at 6-foot-10.
