Former Indiana big man Kel’el Ware capped off a successful summer Monday by earning first team All-Summer League honors and winning a championship.

Just a few hours later, Ware was on the floor for Miami and finished with 21 points and 10 rebounds in the Heat’s 120-118 win against Memphis to claim the Summer League championship.

Ware was 8-for-10 from the floor in 32 minutes in the overtime victory.
