Duke's Jared McCain At No. 15 In NBA Draft A Perfect Match For Miami Heat?

Duke's Jared McCain At No. 15 In NBA Draft A Perfect Match For Miami Heat?

The Miami Heat have the No. 15 pick in the June NBA Draft, where they will aim to land star-level talent who can help them contend for a championship. Duke guard Jared McCain is a strong candidate for the Heat after a strong freshman season. CBS Sports is among outlets that project McCain to land in Miami. "McCain lived up to his reputation as an elite shooter in his one season at Duke, where he averaged 14.3 points while making 41.4% of the 5.8 3-pointers he attempted per game," CBS' Gary Parrish wrote. "Considering the Heat are forever shopping Tyler Herro, and don't seem thrilled with Jimmy Butler, adding a young guard who can shoot in anticipation of a roster-shakeup might be the move."
