Donaldson racked up 20 points (8-12 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 assists, eight rebounds and one steal across 37 minutes in Friday's 101-87 Summer League win over the Pistons.
After missing 10 straight games with a finger injury, Tyrese Maxey returned Saturday against the Hornets. He wasn’t eased back into action, logging 43 minutes. He scored 26 points, which is impressive because the Hornets have the sixth-best defensive rating in the league over their last 10 games. Over their last 10 games, the Heat rank 23rd in defensive rating. The Heat have also played at the fastest pace in the league for the season. In two previous games against them, Maxey scored 27 and 28 points. This is an important game for both teams for playoff seeding, so I think Maxey plays a ton and hits this over.
