Myron Gardner

Myron Gardner's climb reads like a scouting-department reward. Undrafted in 2023 out of Little Rock — with earlier stops at Georgetown and a junior college — he grinded two seasons in Orlando's G League system before Miami, a franchise that loves finding value where others don't look, signed him to a two-way in the summer of 2025. The Heat saw enough to convert him to a standard three-year deal by February 2026. He isn't a volume scorer; he's a forward who rebounds well above his listed size and knocked down 40% of his threes in a bench role. That mix — a wing who cleans the glass and spaces the floor — is exactly the low-usage glue Miami's system squeezes production from. In four spot starts he flashed more, pushing 11 points and eight-plus boards a night.
