Miami Heat: NBA Draft Team Needs

Jason Brubaker — Sun, 27 May 2007 00:00:00 -0700

NBA Draft: Miami Heat

2006-07 Record: 44-38

2007 Picks: 20^th

Team needs: Point guard, depth all over. An aging roster means the team needs to start putting pieces around Dwayne Wade to keep them in contention.

Who to pick: Gabe Pruitt or Javaris Crittenton would give the Heat an athletic point guard who could run with Wade. Sean Williams, Tiago Splitter or DeVon Hardin would also provide some young bodies up front as Shaq and Alonzo Mourning come to the end of their careers.
