It’s understandable why the Miami Heat are entranced with Nikola Jovic’s game.
No, no, not because his name is eerily similar to Denver Nuggets reigning back-to-back MVP Nikola Jokic. But because he’s essentially a 6-foot-11 point forward; he can initiate the pick-and-roll as a ballhandler, spearhead your team’s transition attack off a steal or rebound and hit players in stride in the halfcourt. His playmaking, for his age and experience, is absurd.
Nikola Jovic's playmaking is legit, y'all.
Miami's never had a near 7-foot big who can handle & operate in transition/the pick-and-roll like *this* next to Bam Adebayo.
