Max Strus Remains Hot On Saturday
2 years agoMiami Heat guard Max Strus was asked to take on a bigger role in Game 2 with Jimmy Butler (ankle) sidelined. The expectation was that his usage would decrease with Butler returning for Game 3 on Saturday. However, Strus remained aggressive on offense and it paid off for Miami. He finished with 19 points, three rebounds, and one steal in the blowout victory over the New York Knicks. Strus has scored 36 points on 14-of-26 shooting over the last two games. The Heat are hopeful that Strus remains hot heading into Monday's Game 4 matchup.
