Terry Rozier Heading To Heat Camp Amid Trade, Probe
Terry Rozier — long whispered about as a trade candidate and tied to a federal gambling probe — "is expected to be an active participant in Heat training camp next week" despite Miami reportedly "are seriously considering cutting ties." He’s refused a buyout of his $26.6M salary, there’s little trade interest, and with Tyler Herro sidelined after ankle surgery Rozier "won't be a primary piece" in coach Erik Spoelstra’s rotation if he stays. Merlin sees a veteran at a crossroads: once expected to help carry Miami’s offense, Rozier averaged just 10.6 points and fell out of the rotation. The unresolved federal probe and his contract make any move messy. The Heat could keep him as insurance while Herro heals or quietly part ways if a clearer plan emerges.
