He's averaging just under 5 rebounds and 12.5 PPG this month. He just had 17 P+R against the Pistons a week ago. He has earned the trust of veterans and does a lot of dirty work, including contested rebounds. The Pistons have their woes in that regard. The Heat really need to get going and their starters might build up a big enough lead for the second team to play more. Very adept at driving and creating for himself on the ball.

This rookie continues to make an impact with the Heat second team and play 28 minutes a night and get to a lot of loose balls. He's over this in 8 of the last 11 games, the Pistons have trouble with opponent rebounds and interior play - especially their back-ups - and this athletic leaper collected 6 rebounds vs Detroit earlier this month.
