Pelle Larsson finished Miami’s 105-66 loss to the Warriors on Saturday with eight points (2-of-8 FGs, 3-of-7 FTs), three rebounds, three steals, and one 3-pointer in 23 minutes.
The 44th overall pick in last month’s draft, Larsson got off to a slow start on Saturday (as did his Heat teammates). The former Arizona guard, who shot nearly 40% from three as a collegian, went 1-of-4 from beyond the arc and struggled from the foul line. The good news is that Larsson was impactful in other areas, most notably tallying three steals. The shot will come around, given the numbers he produced while at Arizona. Larsson will be a better option for the late rounds in dynasty league drafts than in redrafts.
