Miami Heat: 5 second round prospects worth buying a pick for

3. Devin Robinson, SF/PF, Florida

Another compelling in-state option for the Heat is Florida’s Devin Robinson. Like Bacon, he’s a wing, though he’s a level up on the positional scale. (Robinson’s more of a 3/4, while the former Seminole is between the 2 and the 3.)

The Gator may not be as talented of a scorer as Bacon, but his NBA outlook may actually be better because he’s a far superior defender. Robinson has the potential to become an elite 3-and-D role player, with the size to play small-ball power forward when his future team wants to go with quicker lineups.

At the combine, he measured in at 6-foot-8 with a near-7-foot-1 wingspan. That superb size and length help him ably defend positions 2-4. What’s more, his offensive game, which used to be a major weakness, greatly improved in his junior year of college. For the season, Robinson averaged 11.1 points and 6.1 rebounds per game, while hitting 39.1 percent of his 3.1 nightly three-point attempts — the best mark of his career.

Still, in his entire three seasons at Florida, he attempted fewer than 300 shots from beyond the arc. We don’t have a great gauge just yet of whether his one successful campaign stroking the long ball will translate to the next level. It is worth noting, though, that he has looked comfortable from NBA range at pre-draft workouts.

If his shooting is sustainable, and you couple it with his freakish athleticism, as exemplified here…

…you have the makings of a tough-nosed wing who would assimilate wonderfully within the Heat’s culture, and who’d be a steal in the second round.
