Pelle Larsson accumulated 22 points (7-of-11 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), seven rebounds, four assists and five steals over 32 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Bulls.
Larsson saw an uptick in creation possessions on a night where both Norman Powell (back) and Tyler Herro (rib) remained absent. He came up with a pair of clutch buckets in the final three minutes as the Heat put together a furious late rally that came up short. The 24-year-old sharpshooter has been red-hot of late, averaging 14.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and two steals in four games over the last week. He’s worthy of a speculative roster spot in deeper leagues.
