Seems like everyone is happy to see Pelle Larsson get his extension with the Miami Heat.
You can just tell Giannis really likes having him on the team👀
Ira Winderman points to Andrew Wiggins and Davion Mitchell as two of Miami’s biggest X-FACTORS in how this season could play out. 👀
“While such a case also could be made with Davion Mitchell, it is Wiggins who has the higher upside to approach All-Star level.”
I think we might look back at these two as being a lot more important than expected. 🔥

Davion Mitchell says Pat Riley and Spo had one message for him in his exit meeting:
“Get your weight down. Be in shape. That’s all we want.”
“There was no basketball talk.”
“This is Heat culture to the T.”

Larsson has become a foundation piece for the Heat amid their offseason overhaul after being a second-round find in the 2024 draft, and now two seasons into his career the 6-foot-5 guard avoids restricted free agency next summer and locks in a new deal with a mutual option that fully guarantees $60 million while allowing either side to opt-in on 2030.
