The Heat only made one move in the 2025 draft, selecting Kasparas Jakucionis with the No. 20 pick. Apart from Jakucionis, they have many young talents on the roster and should field a formidable lineup.

Meanwhile, the Spurs snagged Dylan Harper and Carter Bryant with the No. 2 and No. 14 picks, respectively. They also have the 2024 Rookie of the Year, Stephon Castle. But it wouldn’t be surprising if White misses the Summer League, as he has grown into a key player for the Spurs.

Even without him, the Spurs look like a team to beat and are expected to put on a show. But the Heat are no pushovers, reaching the Summer League final ahead of the 2024-25 season.

San Antonio Spurs vs Miami Heat prediction

Ad

While it’s too early to say, the Spurs seem to have more quality on their young roster than Miami and should pull through. While the Heat have stacked their Summer League roster with many names, there are hardly any noticeable talents on the board.

Our prediction: The Spurs to win.
