Pelle Larsson is playing so good that he's slowly taken over the Dru Smith role for the Miami Heat. At this point, when the Heat gets back to full strength, Larsson could end up playing Smith out of the team's rotation altogether. Considering how much of a favorite Smith has been during his time with the Heat, that speaks to just how impressive Larsson has been at the start of this season.

Dru Smith has taken another step on his road back from an Achilles injury. He's begun five-on-five work on the eve of the start of Miami Heat training camp, which gets him closer to returning to the floor on a full-time basis. There's still hope that Smith will be ready and cleared for the start of the season. At the very least, the idea is that Smith will be back in the rotation at some point during the early portion of the season.
