The Miami Heat added Zyon Pullin to their team, at least for training camp. The player signed an Exhibit 10 deal with Florida, a non-guaranteed contract that will allow him to be part of the team during the preseason and guarantee him financial bonuses if he signs with the franchise or its G League affiliate. . .
Pullin was unsuccessful in entering the 2024 draft, but was acquired by the Heat. In them, he averaged 5.9 points and 1.9 assists, a performance that seems to interest those in Florida who want to closely follow his progress.
In his final season in college, he averaged 15.5 points and 4.9 assists per game while shooting 44.9 percent from three-point range. Pre-draft analysis spoke of him as a solvent player, with good decision-making skills, scoring ability and passing judgment, positioning him as a potential replacement point guard with some mistakes and who thinks about the team first, like a potential Tyus Jones. It does not qualify to be selected, but, due to its tradition in recent years, if there is a team where you want to start your career as a not redactedthat’s the Miami Heat.
Currently, the Florida team has a full roster of 15 players, which makes it difficult to imagine Pullin having a spot in the league this season, but if he performs well during training camp, he could have a chance to fight for in a contract two ways or at least for a spot on the Sioux Falls Skyforce in the G League. And once the franchise has him on their radar, if he can prove he can add at the highest level, the opportunity will come his way.
