What team did 2015-16 rookie Justise Winslow play for?

Justise Winslow played for the Miami Heat as a 2015–16 rookie. Miami selected Winslow with the 10th overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft, adding a highly regarded wing from Duke to a veteran roster led by Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, and Hassan Whiteside.

Winslow had helped Duke win the 2015 NCAA championship before entering the NBA. Although he was known more for defense, rebounding, and playmaking than scoring, he quickly earned a regular role for Miami during his first professional season. The Heat finished 48–34 and reached the Eastern Conference semifinals, where they lost to the Toronto Raptors in seven games.

The wording can cause confusion because Winslow later played for other NBA teams, including the Memphis Grizzlies and Portland Trail Blazers. However, his rookie season was entirely associated with Miami. He remained with the Heat through the 2018–19 season before being traded to the Grizzlies in February 2020.
