Highsmith logged 16 points (6-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and four rebounds over 17 minutes in Wednesday's 120-111 preseason win over Atlanta.
Highsmith led the Heat reserves in scoring Wednesday, and he was third on the team in that category behind Jimmy Butler (24) and Tyler Herro (19). Highsmith averaged a career-high 20.7 minutes per game across 66 regular-season outings (26 starts) last year, and he opted to stay in Miami by signing a two-year, $11 million deal with the Heat in early July. The 27-year-old will provide Miami valuable depth in the frontcourt alongside Jaime Jaquez and Kevin Love.
