The Heat have created excellent competition around their two-way spots. They may have a couple of stash players for Souix falls as well. It will be an interesting tournament to see if they can keep the momentum going and make the decision for two way spots a tough one for the front office. Jahmir Young looks like he should in this setting. He and Donaldson make life miserable for ball handlers. Tre White looks to be a player, and Ian Schieffelin could be a stash that makes a big splash in 2027.
