Eddie House Returns to Miami Heat; Signs 2 Year Deal

Eddie House has returned, according to Adrian Wojnarowski (the hardest name to spell in sports journalism). He has signed a 2 year deal worth about $2.8M. Signing House puts the Heat’s roster at 16, which means they can sign up to 4 more players and carry them through training camp, which begins September 28th.

What does this mean? Most likely that Kenny Hasbrouck is on his way out or at the very least, in a very tough spot to land on the Heat roster permanently. Hasbrouck just signed yesterday, but his contract is not guaranteed unless he makes the final roster and stays on past January. This could also mean that the Heat could make a deal.

In House, the Heat get a “tweener” guard who can shoot and provide offense. His skill set seems very similar to Hasbrouck, although House was originally brought in here to Miami years ago to serve as offense at the guard position off the bench. He gets to come back to Miami and reprise that role.
