Miami Heat

Another trip on the Jae Crowder reunion tour could be on the horizon. Just like with the Boston Celtics, Crowder has spent time previously in his career on South Beach with the Miami Heat.

He spent 20 games with the Heat during the 2019-20 season after being acquired from the Memphis Grizzlies in a trade.

He played really well in those games, making 48.2 percent of his shots and 44.5 percent of his 3-point attempts. Crowder also grabbed 5.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.3 steals per game as he did a little bit of everything for the Miami Heat.

Miami struggled to fill his spot during the 2020-21 season but had P.J. Tucker in that role during the 2021-22 season. With Tucker now moving on in free agency, that hole has now resurfaced on the roster.

Crowder knows what it takes to play for the Miami Heat, where they have a unique culture that has been grown for years. That is a culture that he fits well into with his hard-nosed, defensive approach that fits with the rest of the roster.
