Dion Waiters

The Miami Heat are ready to clean house. Or rather, they’re ready to purge their books of their most undesirable contracts, which belong to Hassan Whiteside, Tyler Johnson and Dion Waiters. Here’s the Miami Herald‘s Barry Jackson: ESPN’s Zach Lowe said this week on his podcast that Houston has explored trading perimeter-shooting power forward Ryan Anderson, [...]

Dion Waiters has missed the past nine games for the Miami Heat with a nagging left ankle injury. Waiters has struggled to recover from the injury and an unenviable option is seemingly becoming more likely by the day: season-ending surgery. [tweet https://twitter.com/flasportsbuzz/status/951200777036419072?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw] Waiters would receive a $1.1 million contract bonus if he was able to [...]

Dion Waiters has never been one to lack confidence or hold his tongue for that matter. Waiters’ efficiency is down a little bit this season after career-highs in a contract year for the Heat in 2016-17 (shocker) and there is some chatter whether the team would be better suited bringing him off the bench. Waiters [...]

Hassan Whiteside doesn’t agree with Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra. Or Dion Waiters. Or Goran Dragic. Sensing a pattern here? Coach Spo and Waiters recently riffed on the Heat’s screen-setting issues, a direct form of commentary on Whiteside’s play. And now Dragic has come out with similar sentiments, per the Palm Peach Post‘s Anthony Chiang: [...]

Rudy Gobert still isn’t happy with Dion Waiters. Not only did the Miami Heat guard collide with his right knee, an incident that will cost the big man four to six weeks of basketball, but he sounded less than sympathetic afterward, telling reporters, per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel: “I’ve never been a dirty [...]

The Utah Jazz aren’t going to let Rudy Gobert’s knee injury go. The superstar big man will miss the next four to six weeks after injuring his knee on Sunday in a loss against the Miami Heat. Contact with Dion Waiters’ was the culprit of his setback, and many have questioned whether the incident included [...]

  Dion Waiters is due for a substantial raise from the $2.9 million he made in 2016-17, and he’s hoping it comes from the Miami Heat—so much so he’s willing to return at a discount. Here’s what he said during an appearance on WSVN’s 7 Sports Xtra (via the South Florida Sun Sentinel‘s Ira Winderman): “It depends,” he said [...]

The Miami Heat were very fun this season. After starting 11-30, they went 30-11 the rest of the way, posting the second-best record in the damn league for half the freaking season. They missed the playoffs, but whatever. They were entertaining to watch, even when Dion Waiters went down with an ankle injury. But will [...]

Get excited, Miami Heat fans! Sort of. Dion Waiters has missed the Miami Heat’s last three games after suffering an ankle injury during a March 17 win against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Though X-rays were negative, no timetable was placed on his return. That still seems to be the case now, only the Heat know Waiters’ [...]

The Miami Heat’s playoff hopes have taken another blow: Dion Waiters suffered an ankle during Friday night’s win over the Minnesota Timberwolves, and the team has no idea when he’s going to return. X-rays were negative, per the Miami Herald‘s Manny Navarro, but head coach Erik Spoelstra said the team doesn’t have a timetable for his [...]
