It may be time for Miami Heat fans to embrace what they are - and currently, they're a team built on the foundation of Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro. For better or worse, the Heat is likely locked into this reality for the foreseeable future. As NBA insider Jake Fischer notes, the mindset for the Heat moving forward is to add to the core of Bam and Herro, and not necessarily to subtract from it.

However, one of the most intriguing prospects that wasn't mentioned is Bilal Coulibaly. The former No. 9 overall pick has shown flashes in each of his first two seasons, but his main calling card his been his defensive versatility. As on oversized guard, the French product's length and size allow for him to defend nearly every position on the floor. In addition to his frame, the guard's defensive insticts and IQ allow for him to be a game changer on the defensive end.
