Although the Miami Heat aren’t sure what’s going to happen with Dwyane Wade and his potential free agent status, it seems they do have one player interested in Miami Beach.
None other than veteran power forward Carlos Boozer.
The former Duke standout, who struggled with the LA Lakers last season is familiar with the Miami Heat and could sign there as a free agent this offseason. As to what type of contract he’ll be commanding, that’s uknown though given Carlos Boozer’s declining skills and age it’s likely to be for the veteran minimum.
Regardless, it sounds as if there is a good chance Carlos Boozer will sign with the Miami Heat this offseason.
Per the Miami Herald:
As associate of veteran power forward Carlos Boozer said Boozer wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up with the Heat next season (almost assuredly at the minimum).
Boozer, who spends a lot of time in Miami, can still play as a backup (11.8 points, 6.8 rebounds, 49.9 percent from the field for the Lakers), but signing him makes sense only if Josh McRoberts or (less likely) Udonis Haslem is dealt.
It certainly isn’t a huge move by any stretch, though for a few minutes per game Boozer can still be relatively effective as a bench talent.
