So Heat will have 6-7 rookie Jamal Cain available for 50 games this season in his new 2-way deal. Averaged 19.9 and 10.2 rebounds at Oakland University last season and has been very good in camp/preseason. Blossomed last season after 31 starts in 4 years at Marquette. – 11:29 AM

The Heat have converted Jamal Cain to a two-way contract, have waived Darius Days from his two-way and signed Mychal Mulder. Days then signed an Exhibition 10 with Heat, was also waived from that, and can play G League for Heat. – 11:22 AM

These last two nights have been encouraging for those worrying about who’s next in the Heat’s developmental pipeline. It’s only two preseason games, but Nikola Jovic and Jamal Cain have stood out against two teams playing most of their regulars. – 10:09 PM

Will be interesting to see Darius Days for Heat in Memphis tonight. Jamal Cain has been very impressive, and there’s nothing to stop Heat from subbing out either of its 2-way contracts (Garrett, Days). 2-way guys can appear in 50 NBA games this season. miamiherald.com/sports/spt-col… – 1:08 PM

SOUND ON
Jamal Cain put up 15 points/11 rebounds/5 steals on Thursday night in Brooklyn
But his natural feel for the game off the ball on both offense and defense seals the deal for Miami’s evaluation
Film look into those possessions:

Jamal Cain was the man of the night for the Miami Heat. 15 points, 11 rebounds, 6-10 FG, 5 steals, 0 turnovers in 27 minutes. What a game!
He will stay in the NBA for a long time because of his energy and aggresiveness.

Worth keeping in mind: While likes of Dru Smith and Jamal Cain figure to remain within Heat umbrella at G League Sioux Falls, they also will be free to be signed by any NBA team once waived by Heat, including being claimed off waivers. Heat do not have room below tax to retain. – 8:40 PM

Jamal Cain up to 10 points, five rebounds and two steals in 12 impressive minutes.
Cain was a four-star recruit in 2016. There’s talent there. 6-7 with a 6-9.5 wingspan and shot 35% on 3s in college. Raw, but he’ll be coached up in Sioux Falls. – 8:37 PM

Jamal Cain is an energy guy
But he’s showing to be a productive guy as well
So active on boards, lengthy enough to bother defensively vs different positions, and has decent touch on put backs
10 points on 4 of 4 shooting/5 boards rn – 8:36 PM
