Ware was the No. 15 overall pick in 2024, and after a quiet start to his rookie season, he burst onto the scene and claimed the starting center job, pushing Bam Adebayo to power forward. Part of the reason Ware was thrust into a larger role was due to Jimmy Butler, who was injured and then refused to play when cleared to suit up. Butler was eventually rewarded with a trade to Golden State. Ware recorded 15 double-doubles in 64 regular-season appearances (36 starts) and averaged 1.1 blocks per game, giving him a strong fantasy floor. As a starter, he averaged 10.1 points and 9.4 rebounds per game. Ware attempted the occasional three, hardly ever got to the line, and his percentages in those categories were lackluster. The Heat added more offense this offseason by trading for Norman Powell, but that shouldn't impact Ware, who has a lengthy runway in the frontcourt due to a lack of depth. Behind Ware and Adebayo, Miami has Nikola Jovic, Simone Fontecchio, Jaime Jaquez and two-way rookie Vladislav Goldin. Given his poor free-throw percentage, Ware is safer in points leagues, but he should be a top-100 pick either way.
