Heat finally reaping reward of long-awaited Sixth Man battle heating up

As Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Nikola Jovic continue to make big steps forward in their individual developments, the Miami Heat have a great problem on their hands. Which player should be the sixth man? Both have a great argument for the job.

And Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra has to be loving it.

At least for now, Jaquez Jr., in somewhat surprising fashion, appears to be holding the slight lead. However, Jovic has shown signs of brilliance in his own right. If he can figure out how to put it all together, the Heat could have two great sixth-man candidates on their roster pretty soon.
