Pelle Larsson may be the only Heat player who can provide a season-saving spark

Writer Michael Saenz argues that Pelle Larsson could be the only player capable of providing a season-saving spark for the Miami Heat following their 3-6 start. Saenz suggests that head coach Erik Spoelstra should consider promoting Larsson to the starting lineup to support Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo.

Through nine games, Larsson is shooting career highs of 40 percent from 3-point range and 90 percent on free throws, alongside four assists per game. Saenz notes that lineups featuring Larsson in place of Andrew Wiggins have posted a +22.5 net rating across 26 minutes.
