Heat: Duncan Robinson on the table?

Duncan Robinson has played less than 20 minutes in the last three games for the Heat. Max Strus has played over 25 in the last three games for the Heat. There’s a belief around the league that Robinson is a player Miami is open to talks about. Bear in mind that a turnaround in his 3-point shooting (34.5%) would do a lot to resolve that situation.

Duncan Robinson made two 3s off dribble-handoffs with Bam Adebayo in the 1Q of Monday’s win. Here he is on his DHO chemistry with Bam.

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra opts for continuity in playing Dewayne Dedmon over Omer Yurtseven. sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-h… Spoelstra also offers reasoning in again starting Duncan Robinson. – 2:00 PM

Erik Spoelstra on Duncan Robinson back in the starting lineup and Dedmon back as the second string center: “We’ll continue to use our full roster as needed.”
Sounds like Duncan will continue to start. Spo wants to see him with Lowry and the rest of the starters. – 10:27 PM

That last Duncan Robinson three was off the Bam Adebayo handoff
The thing about it is how smooth it was run
