Josh McRoberts: Stock Down (-)

Josh McRoberts Miami Heat

Though it has been reported that Josh McRoberts will return from his toe injury in time for the Heat’s regular season opener versus the Washington Wizards on October 29, the fact remains that McRoberts has yet to play in an actual game for the franchise.

While his spot in the starting lineup remains secure for now, the 6’10” forward still needs in-game experience to develop chemistry with his new teammates. Newcomers like Deng, Ennis and Napier are all learning how to play with key pieces such as Wade and Bosh due to the preseason.

By the time the regular season starts, McRoberts won’t be able to say that he enjoyed that luxury.
