2025-26: Sixth Man runner-up

A heady, old-school wing who took a real leap as a secondary creator — 15.4 points and 4.7 assists with sharp connective passing — and finished as the runner-up for Sixth Man of the Year. He scores efficiently inside the arc (50.7% from the field) but the outside shot (31.7% from three) still keeps defenses honest. A crafty, winning Heat-culture player whose value lives in feel rather than athleticism.

Seasons from Basketball-Reference (2023-24 → 2025-26). Production is box plus-minus, a per-possession measure. Value is VORP-based wins, so it also counts games played. Contract value is what each season’s play would fetch on the open market. The dotted 2026-27 point is a forecast: his established level, a year older, assuming a normal season.
