Analyse

Highsmith was a big part of Miami's rotation in 2024-25, as he averaged 6.5 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.5 blocks and 1.2 three-pointers on 45.8 percent shooting from the field in 24.6 minutes per night. In Brooklyn, Highsmith will be joining a rebuilding team, and he'll be competing for minutes with guys like Terance Mann, Jalen Wilson and Noah Clowney off the bench. Highsmith underwent surgery Aug. 8 to repair a meniscal tear in his right knee and is currently questionable to be ready by Opening Night.
