Heat’s Waiters inks $5.93M deal

Shooting guard Dion Waiters has signed a US $ 5.93 million, two-year contract with the Miami Heat, and he’ll compete for a starting job as Dwyane Wade’s replacement. Waiters was one of the top free agents left on the market. He became an unrestricted free agent when Oklahoma City rescinded a US $ 6.8 million qualifying offer. The second year of his Miami deal announced Tuesday includes a player option. Wade, a 12-time all-star, signed a US$47 million, two-year deal with the Chicago Bulls.
