Overview
- The Heat are internally discussing cutting ties with Rozier before training camp, with no final decision disclosed.
- Reporting says Rozier has told Miami he will not accept a buyout, and there is no trade market for his expiring deal.
- Waiving Rozier is described as the team’s only practical avenue to move on, which would place his full $26.6 million on the books as dead money.
- Rozier’s role has shrunk after a drop in performance since his 2024 acquisition from Charlotte, and he fell out of the rotation last season.
- A federal probe into suspicious betting tied to Rozier remains active, while a separate NBA review reportedly found no league-rule violation.
