Heat's regret in drafting Kasparas Jakucionis grows as Hugo Gonzalez impresses

Related Topics: Miami Heat

Kasparas Jakucionis hasn’t played a game for the Miami Heat yet, and based on how impressive Boston Celtics rookie Hugo Gonzalez has been, there could be some incoming regret. Jakucionis missed the first seven games of the season with a groin injury, but since then, he still hasn’t earned any playing time.

All the while, Gonzalez has emerged as a legitimate rotation piece for Boston, and his play style is exactly the type that Heat fans would love to root for. There’s still plenty of time for Jakucionis to earn his place, but right now, Gonzalez looks like he would have been a perfect fit for Miami.
