"Despite the strides that Pelle Larsson has made in his offensive game since breaking into the league, he continues to struggle with foul trouble. In 37 total preseason minutes thus far, he's tallied seven personal fouls. If he can't solve this recurring issue, it's going to be difficult for him to carve out any consistent role for the Miami Heat this season."
"In his rookie season, Larsson only averaged 1.7 fouls per game. Not too bad. But when you factor in that he only averaged 14 minutes per contest, that's when it becomes a clear issue. Per 36 minutes, Larsson averaged more than four fouls per game. At this point, the lack of control that Larsson has at times could end up being debilitating for the development of his career."
Pelle Larsson has improved offensively since entering the league but continues to struggle with frequent fouls. He has seven personal fouls in 37 preseason minutes and shows an aggressive style that produces avoidable "bad fouls." As a rookie he averaged 1.7 fouls across only 14 minutes, translating to over four fouls per 36 minutes. That lack of control risks hindering his development and reducing head coach Erik Spoelstra's willingness to trust him in important moments. Larsson has offensive upside, yet current fouls and turnovers make it difficult for him to secure reliable rotation minutes.
