Heat bring in veteran Howard
Basketball Betting Lines
07/20/2010 -
Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Heat continued their radical roster
reshaping on Tuesday by signing journeyman forward Juwan Howard.
Per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. However, the South
Florida Sun-Sentinel reported it is a one-year deal for the veteran minimum of
$1.4 million.
"This is a great addition for us," said Heat president Pat Riley. "We feel
that Juwan's ability to play both the four and five spot will be complimentary
to what we have put together. He also gives us incredible professionalism and
is a perfect fit behind Chris Bosh and Udonis Haslem."
The 37-year-old spent last season with Portland, where he averaged 6.0 points
and 4.6 rebounds in 73 contests.
Since breaking into the league in 1994 as the fifth overall pick of Washington
from the University of Michigan, Howard has racked up 14.3 points, 6.5
rebounds and 2.4 assists per contest in 1,116 NBA games with the
Bullets/Wizards, Mavericks, Nuggets, Magic, Rockets, Bobcats and Trail
Blazers.
Howard joins previous front-court additions Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Dexter
Pittman, Bosh and LeBron James on the new Miami roster as the club looks to
win their second NBA title in franchise history.
