There are plenty stories of retired Miami Heat captain Udonis Haslem taking control in the locker room. 

When asked his favorite, former Heat guard Gabe Vincent flashed back to the 2020 bubble season in Orlando. Vincent told the story of Haslem letting everyone he was in charge during an interview with Mark Medina of Sportskeeda

“There are so many," said Vincent, who is now a teammate with LeBron James on the Los Angeles Lakers. "In terms of the culture, that’s even tougher. One of the ones that stick out, I don’t know if it’s a quote-unquote favorite story. But in the bubble [in 2020 season restart, UD [Udonis Haslem] cussed the whole team and threw a chair. That [stuff] was hilarious. It was hilarious! It’s hilarious to look back on, but it summed it up. You’re able to hold your brother accountable and you’re able to be real knowing we have this collective goal in mind and you’re able to speak plainly. You get straight to the bottom of it, find a solution and move forward. We thrived down there. We’re able to have an outburst and know it’s not personal. We can take that and progress forward.”

Vincent was among the key losses for the Heat during the offseason. He was the starting point guard most of last season and in the Finals. After failing to sign Damian Lillard, the Heat enter training camp with Kyle Lowry as the starter.
