NBA mailbag: A left-handed lineup meets a team of undrafted underdogs in Miami

When the Miami Heat and New York Knicks square off in Saturday's Game 3 of their conference semifinals matchup and beyond, it will be a battle between the lefties and the undrafted stars.

The Heat and Knicks both feature lineups that highlight players that go against the NBA norm. In New York's case, it's a heavy reliance on southpaws -- starters RJ Barrett, Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle plus reserve Isaiah Hartenstein. The Portland Trail Blazers, with five, were the only team with more left-handed shooters this season.
