NBA Insider Has Bold Prediction For Future Miami Heat Star

 


The NBA summer has been full of big moves and even more rumours, with one of the biggest being Damian Lillard to Miami, but one NBA Insider has implored Heat fans to take a step back and not be so quick to want Dame Time to come to South Beach.

ESPN personality Brian Windhorst has now had some very high praise for Heat prospect Nikola Jovic, going as far to say "There's a lot of Heat fans that just want to throw him in a trade for Damian Lillard... they might not feel that way after they watch him play maybe in the preseason or early season".

The 20-year old was a first-round pick of the Heat back in the 2022 NBA Draft, and while he only got into 15 games a season ago, the future is very bright, and after seeing what the Heat got out of some undervalued players in the playoffs last season, he could be key to their next big post-season run.
