20. Miami Heat – Cole Anthony, G, North Carolina

As much as the Miami Heat would love to get their hands on a big at this point in the draft, the one that makes the most sense for this team is already off the board (Jalen Smith). And there’s one intriguing player still on the board that would make *some* sense for the Heat.

Cole Anthony is a player that most college basketball fans know and one that carries some weight as a potential star if he continues to develop. The Heat needs depth at the point guard position, especially with the uncertainty that follows Goran Dragic and Kendrick Nunn heading into the offseason.

Anthony left much to be desired during his freshman season at North Carolina but did flash some moments of stardom. He needs some development and some guidance. The Miami Heat organization would be a great fit for Cole Anthony as he attempts to reshape the narrative.
