Heat makes its stance on Pelle Larsson crystal clear as he returns from injury

Erik Spoelstra and the Miami Heat wasted no time in welcoming Pelle Larsson back into the rotation. Playing 30 minutes in his return after missing two and a half weeks because of injury, it's quite clear just how much this coaching staff and team trusts Larsson.

And, to be quite honest, that's a complete turn of events. At the beginning of the season, Larsson wasn't even in the original rotation.

Through the first three games of the season, Larsson was averaging a little over five minutes per contest. That quickly changed due to injury, when Spo was practically forced to play Larsson.
