The Miami Heat officially announced that the team has signed Zyon Pullin, a fifth-year backcourt player from the University of Florida, who was undrafted in this year's NBA Draft. What Pullin got from the Heat was a two-way contract.
Born in March 2001, the 23-year-old is a scoring and skilled backcourt player. According to the previous physical test data of the G League elite training camp, Purin's height is 191.8cm, the arm span is 197.5cm, the standing touch height is 250.2cm, and the weight is 91.4kg. Pullin's static talent is not particularly ideal, although his height is not short among the number one players, his arm span is very average, his touch height is not particularly good, he is quite tall among the number one players, but when compared to the number two players, he becomes unadvantageous. On top of that, Pullin's dynamic stats aren't particularly good, and his movement speed looks pretty good, but his explosiveness and bounce seem to be average. Overall, Pullin is not a very physically gifted and athletic player.
In the NCAA this season, Poolin played a total of 33 games for the team, averaging 33.5 minutes per game, averaging 15.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.1 blocks, and 1.3 turnovers, shooting 44.4% from the field, 44.9% from three-point range, and 84.7% from the free throw line. After transferring to the University of Florida, Pullin showed quite good individual ability, he has a wealth of offensive means and all-round scoring ability, his organization and tandem ability are also worthy of recognition, but his performance on the defensive end is relatively average, his defensive ability is not particularly good, and he is also obviously older, his ceiling and future development space may be very limited, which is also an important factor in his final loss in the previous draft.
Previously, Purin also had a tryout for the Heat, and it seems that his performance in the tryout was quite good, and he was also recognized by the Heat. In addition, he himself also plays at the University of Florida, and he should also have a certain amount of popularity in Miami, so signing him is also a more reasonable operation. After signing Prince, the Heat signed back Dru Smith on a two-way contract, and according to previous news, they will also sign Keshad Johnson, another undrafted pick in this year's NBA Draft, on another two-way contract, which means that the Heat have given away all three two-way contracts. Next up is Poole's NBA Summer League for the Heat, and we'll see how the University of Florida's backcourt core is. Could he be another high-quality draft pick unearthed by the Heat?
