Simply put, Jae Crowder is a HEAT guy. From the very moment he made his debut in early February, it was evident that his mentality and style of play just fit the team perfectly. So, after coming off the bench in 12 of his first 13 games with Miami, Crowder was named a starter versus Denver, and has been there ever since. Not only was his knack for spacing the floor and hitting timely shots a big reason for the move, but also his ability to switch on defense. That versatility has stood out to Duncan Robinson since day one. “He’s really like a Swiss Army Knife for us, and he’s been that ever since we got him,” Robinson said. “Just his versatility on offense and on defense, the ability to switch multiple positions and muck things up defensively and then also dribble, pass and shoot on offense. He’s an incredibly unselfish player. He’d be a great addition to any unit, so we felt like with adding him to that group, it was going to be plug and play, and that’s what it was.”
