This is VERY interesting for the Miami Heat...

This is very interesting for the Miami Heat as with the acquisition of Giannis Antetokounmpo this offseason Various former Miami Heat players seem to be more than willing to come back to this Heat Organization to play alongside Bam and Giannis as it seems like they're going to be championship favorites I'm going to break down the newest former Heat player in Kendrick Nunn and how he has recently reached out via social media to this Heat organization as a possible Candidate to come back to this Heat organization to be a legitimate piece to this Heat organization We'll break down all of that on this episode of Heat Digest So let's not waste any time and get right to it Please do remember to subscribe if you're part of that 80% But Kendrick Nunn as he recently reached out via Twitter or X However, you'd like to address it and he went on to say bump into at least three to five people a day asking me when I'm coming back at Miami Heat with a bunch of eye emojis The city is talking and he tweeted this just yesterday July 23rd around 6 30 p.m Eastern Standard Time and this is very intriguing to say the absolute least as Kendrick Nunn was a phenom with this Miami Heat team, especially in his first two seasons in the NBA as He was a top two of rookie of the year voting He then followed that up with a pretty good year as a sophomore in Miami and then he dealt with some injuries He was traded around and then found himself out in the Euroleague where if you don't know The dude was absolutely ridiculous and not to mention the three-point percentage went up drastically shooting nearly 43% out in the Euroleague We'll break down the rest of this conversation in just a second But first we have to thank our sponsor for this video in PrizePix PrizePix is America's number one sports pick app and by far and away the best way to get in on the action If you want to sign up for PrizePix use the link down in the description or in the pinned comment New users get $50 instantly when playing your first $5 lineup again The link is down in the description or in the pinned comment use code digest DIGEST when signing up to get that awesome promotion We'll jump into some picks and some better promotions later in this episode so stay tuned for that, but now back to the Kendrick Nunn conversation as We all remember it We all loved him when he was in Miami averaging 15 points three rebounds in three assists per game While being an extremely athletic and more of a hybrid type of guard He was very exciting to watch. Now is he a perfect fit for the SEA team as currently constructed? Not necessarily because he's never been known as a prolific three-point shooter shooting 35% in his rookie year and then 38% in his sophomore year on nearly six attempts in both of those seasons But look at what happened when he exited the NBA. Yes We all remember the fight videos that went viral surrounding Kendrick Nunn just over a year ago or just in the last year I should say But the kid can absolutely Ball and yes, I know there's a lot going on in this graphic But you have to realize that it's based off the league and tournament play They're all put together in one shout the sports reference for doing that But the numbers are really really good again 15 points 12 21 14 19 and then 16 and look at the three-point numbers Yes, the attempts are down just a bit in some of these years, but he had years like in that 24 25 Euroleague Season where he shot nearly or he did shoot seven a game and shot nearly 43% from behind the three-point line and then for the collection of games that he played out there in the in these what three Seasons or four seasons he shot 42 Point three percent from behind the three-point line It looks like that three-point shot has done nothing but improved since going out into the Euroleague and honestly I'm not opposed to the idea of bringing him back the idea of needing another guard to add another layer of depth would be is Something that is very intriguing surrounding the Miami Yes They have Debbie on Mitchell who I think is going to be leaps and bounds better than he was last year and a lot better Than anyone is giving him credit for through this point of the offseason, especially playing with the Oz and now BAM on a bio Kendrick none could be a legitimate second or third string option in that point guard or even shooting guard role for this heat team that not Only could be a legitimate option But just add another layer of depth and versatility to the seed organization that I think they are desperately looking for I don't think the price tag would be very great in the sense of what it would Would require in order to actually acquire him and bring him into this organization Maybe something along the lines of a veteran minimum contract or maybe doesn't qualify for a veteran minimum But just a minimum in general and he could be a legitimate piece of the seed organization Not only a scoring threat, but someone who can handle and facilitate the basketball at a decent level again the assist numbers aren't going to jump off the page at you as he's really more of a scoring guard, but Call it four assists per game three and a half to four assists per game in Euroleague play If you go back to his tenure in the NBA, he still maintained good abilities to move the ball I know the assist numbers aren't great But also look at the minutes he's playing per game as well as the overall games. He's actually playing in they were heavily skewed downwards and If you plug him into this situation who says he couldn't be successful everyone loved his tenure in Miami everyone loved him when he was in Miami and Honestly to bring him back and put him in a position in the fashion that he would be in now returning to this Heat team as currently constructed that is pretty well built with Giannis and BAM at the helm I think it would be a legitimate option I think this is very interesting very intriguing to say the absolute least I think it's something Pat Riley in the seed organization should absolutely keep an eye on especially if other guards Are just out of their control because of price tag and lack of cap space I really think Kendrick none could be a legitimate option for this Miami team And I think it could be really beneficial also not to mention to take guys like Ryan Conwell under his wing and teach them About the game of basketball whether it's in the sense of his experience in the National Basketball Association or over in the Euroleague where he's been playing for the last three to four seasons there years I should say I Don't I don't hate this I would love to know how do you guys feel about the idea of Kendrick none possibly returning to the seed organization the NBA in General as I'm the more I think about the more. I really like it. I truly do believe that I truly do mean that And it wasn't just the idea that he was a prolific shooter And we all know he wasn't but he had the ability to knock him down any pretty good clip Especially five to six attempts per game and now plug him into this situation After what we saw in the Euroleague stats and in the Euroleague games the shooting percentages have gone up especially behind the three-point line So he's not just living on getting to the basket as a slashing scoring type of guard It seems like he's improved his game Not saying he's prolific But it seems like he has a chance to get to that point based off the numbers we've broken down in this video that we're Highlighting now with this graphic again 42.3% through to four six different sets of a league in the sense You have three sets of Euroleague basketball as well as three sets of tournament play The dude is really really elevating his overall abilities not to mention He still has that ability as an athleticism to slash and get to the painted area and finish with authority I really do enjoy this idea Even if it's in a complimentary fashion where he doesn't have to be a star in Miami now again Let me know down below your thoughts and opinions on the idea of possibly bringing back Kendrick none And before we conclude this video We do have to throw up those prize pick scores that I did mention earlier in this episode and we're going back to the well What do I mean Miami Marlins hosting the San Diego Padres both teams have been very under or no I shouldn't say that the Padres have been extremely Underwhelming and don't have a great pitcher on the mound today at Herman Marquez. I'm we're fading without a shadow of a doubt We're going less than 17 and a half fantasy pitcher fantasy score I should say and we're going to pair that with old reliable and this is what I meant by going back to the well Otto Lopez still leads the MLB in average hits and doubles the dude is an absolute freak He's extremely underappreciated because he plays in a market in Miami for baseball. It's unfortunate but Miami has really done a really really really bad job to remaining in that competitive aspect since Transforming from the Miami or from the Florida Marlins to the Miami Marlins not going to argue who had better jerseys But we all know who did Yeah, we're going to pair that with more than one and a half total bases for Otto Lopez It is a red demon on prize picks if you don't know what that means That is one of the awesome promotions that they run as if you take that it is an alternate line It is a higher line than the default line and you get it You get higher payouts in this line.
