The struggling Heat were blown out by the Lakers on Monday, an ominous start to a five-game road trip. But Giannis Antetokounmpo hasn’t wavered in his belief the team can be a contender this season, according to Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald.
“Do I think we have the pieces? Yeah,” he said. “Do I think we got a lot of things to figure out? We have a lot. But I know what the Miami Heat culture is about. I know what the players in this locker room are about. I know what I’m about. And I know that once we get on the right track, we can make some noise.
