Heat Sign Klay, Target Richards | Miami Heat News

Miami Heat just pulled off a major offseason move by signing Klay Thompson to a two-year, $11.5M deal — a smart pay cut that opens up roster flexibility. With Thompson now on board, the Heat can sign two more players to minimum contracts and still have three roster spots open. Their top target? Center Nick Richards, who’s been working out with the team and could join as a backup before camp. Richards averaged 5.8 points and 5.1 rebounds last season while splitting time between the Suns and Bulls. The Heat are also keeping tabs on other centers and may wait for potential free agents to be waived — all part of building a deeper, more versatile frontcourt.
