Heat Looking at McClinton

Heat, Vice President of Player Personnel Chet Kammerer along with Riley and team executives Andy Elisburg, Nick Arison and Adam Simon — spent the past two days at the NBA Draft Combine in Chicago.

Among those invited to drill was University of Miami guard Jack McClinton.

"I think he's Eddie House to Robert Hite, somewhere in the middle there," Kammerer said, referencing the former Heat 3-point specialist and the former UM undersized shooter who failed to sustain an NBA career. "The positive is Jack shot the ball well. He certainly didn't hurt himself. He was pretty productive."

McClinton entered the combine amid questions of whether he would merit a second-round selection.

"I think there's a premium a little right now on shooting," Kammerer said. "Because he has that skill, I think there's interest in Jack."
