The Miami HEAT had a type.
As free agency wore on in mid-July with the team trying to fill out its frontcourt rotation, there was a clear mold most of the acquisitions seemed to fit – the skilled, six-foot-nine combo-forward.
So with the team participating in Las Vegas Summer League, the end of one whirlwind day of signings and acquisitions brought Derrick Williams, James Johnson and Luke Babbitt to the roster.
Months later, with Chris Bosh not with the team, those three join Josh McRoberts as the most likely candidates to start at power forward along with Hassan Whiteside.
