23-year old Robert Dozier was the last player picked in the NBA Draft. The 23-year old Dozier is a banger who plays good on the defensive end of the court. He played in 148 games in four seasons at Memphis where he averaged 9.3 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 1.5 blocked shots per game. Dozier will back up Udonis Haslem if he makes the roster.

UPDATE: Robert Dozier has signed with Greek team Colossus Rhodes. The Heat will keep his rights for a little while but it looks like he won’t be playing for them any time soon.

The Heat acquired this pick from the Lakers and they didn’t think they could pass up Beverly. The 20-year old Beverly will have the cool job of backing up D-Wade. Beverly played two seasons at Arkansas covering 70 games in which he averaged 13.0 minutes, 5.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.5 steals per game. Beverly then played professionally last season in the Ukraine where he played in 46 games and averaged 16.7 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.3 blocks per game. Beverly showed last season that he could handle the rigors of professional basketball so he will be on the fast track to getting playing time.

UPDATE: Beverly has signed a 1-year deal to play for Olympiakos of Greece meaning that both of the Heat’s draft picks will be playing overseas this season.

The Miami Heat traded two future 2nd round picks and cash to the Timberwolves for point guard Mario Chalmers. This fits a big need for the Heat as point guard has been a weakness the last couple of seasons. Look for Chalmers to be a backup initially for the Heat but he has the potential to start down the road. Chalmers is a polished player who has a lot of college experience. He played in 110 games (96 starts) at Kansas and he averaged 12.2 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.6 steals per game. He’s a little on the small side at 6′1″, 190 but he’s a good shooter hitting 41.9% of his shots from three point range. This was another very solid pick by the Heat.

The Miami Heat selected forward Michael Beasley with the second pick of the NBA Draft. If Shawn Marion leaves Beasley will be the starting small forward and if Udonis Haslem is moved he will start at power forward as a rookie as he is way too good to sit on the bench. Beasley is 6′10″, 235 pounds and he has a complete game playing hard on both ends of the court. He is just scratching the surface of his potential as he is only 19 years old right now. Beasley played in 33 games (all starts) as a freshman at Kansas State and he averaged 26.2 points, 12.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.6 blocked shots per game. Look for Beasley to complement Dwyane Wade’s game perfectly. This was an outstanding pick by the Heat.

The Miami Heat acquired Daequan Cook, a 2009 2nd round pick and cash for Jason Smith.  The Heat took full advatage of the Sixers who had the hots for Smith.  Cook is a 6′5″, 210 pound shooting guard/small forward.  Cook played in 39 games last season for the Ohio State Buckeyes and he averaged 9.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game as a freshman.  He also is a solid shooter as he hit 44.5% from the floor, 41.5% from three point range and 69.7% from the free throw line.  Cook’s playing time as a rookie will hinge on how many of the Heat’s free agents they re-sign.
