## Resource

The Heat’s new roster looks promising but falls short of championship depth, according to scouts. While their frontcourt is solid and additions like Klay Thompson and Bobby Portis add value, the guard play remains a glaring weakness—Davion Mitchell’s readiness, Thompson’s aging defense, and Hardaway Jr.’s one-dimensionality limit their ceiling. Ranked with Cleveland, Boston, and Toronto as playoff contenders with uncertain outcomes, Miami’s success may hinge on winning just one series. Forward Keshad Johnson, embracing a two-way deal despite lower pay, says staying in Miami is about unfinished business—and he’s not looking elsewhere.
