Heat Cut Ties With Rozier Over Gambling Probe
Terry Rozier is done in Miami. The Heat waived their guard Friday after he’s been sidelined since October tangled up in a sports gambling investigation. The move clears roster space for the team to add depth as they navigate the stretch run.
Rozier signed with Miami last summer but never got on the court this season. The gambling probe derailed what was supposed to be a veteran backcourt presence for the Heat. Now he’s a free agent and teams will have to weigh whether to take a flyer on him depending on how the investigation plays out.
This opens the door for Miami to address roster needs heading into the final stretch. The Heat have flexibility now to chase a wing, another guard, or bolster their bench depending on what’s available on the market.
