The Miami Heat might need another ball handler.
It's hard to argue that the ball should be in Giannis Antetokounmpo's hands more often than not, but it could take the attention away ever so slightly from the 10-time All-Star.
"Although the Miami Heat's defense is giving them more trouble than their offense, they're exhausting the usage of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Pelle Larsson, and Davion Mitchell. Another ball-handler and scorer would go a long way," Bleacher Report's Dan Favale wrote.
One name to keep in mind for Miami is free agent guard Kevin Porter Jr.
The Milwaukee Bucks waived Porter before the regular season after the 26-year-old averaged 17.4 points per game across 38 games last season.
How badly does Miami need another scoring option outside of Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo?
"The need for one is especially urgent so long as Tim Hardaway Jr. and Andrew Wiggins are struggling to torch twine.

"And KPJ would also be a nice audible to Klay Thompson minutes on nights in which defenses are relentlessly targeting the latter," Favale added.
Porter is a 34% shooter from beyond the arc, good enough that opposing defenses would have to respect his touch.
That could spread the floor just a bit and allow Antetokounmpo and Adebayo to have a little more breathing room on offense.
