The Miami Heat have the No. 13 pick in next month’s NBA Draft, and according to a new report, they’re looking hard at Kentucky’s three draft prospects.

The Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson is reporting that the Heat have scheduled a private workout with PJ Washington and plan to bring in Tyler Herro and Keldon Johnson as well.

“The Heat’s interest in Kentucky prospects is not surprising,” Jackson writes. “Heat president Pat Riley attended school there and keeps a close eye on the Wildcats program. Coach John Calipari often produces NBA-ready prospects.
