Report: Miami Heat forward Jae Crowder hoping to work out new contract with team
- Updated: October 8, 2020
Miami Heat forward Jae Crowder reaffirmed his desire to remain with the Miami Heat long term.
Crowder, 30, was acquired by Miami in a trade deadline deal with the Memphis Grizzlies.
The deal also brought Andre Iguodala to the Heat.
Crowder indicates he hopes to work out new contract with Heat. I would expect attractive one year offer maybe with second year team option.

Crowder has been solid for Miami since coming over in the trade and is a big reason why it is in the NBA Finals.
During the regular season for the Heat, Crowder averaged 11.9 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game.
He also was a sniper from long range, shooting 44.5 percent from 3-point range since joining Miami.
The Heat would be smart to bring back Crowder, as he has proven to be a solid role piece around Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo.
Crowder and the Heat are trying to pull off the impossible and come back from a 3-1 deficit in the Finals against the Lakers.
