Alec Burks - Agrees to one-year deal with Miami Burks agreed to a one-year contract with the Heat on Wednesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact After spending the first seven years of his career in Utah, Burks has moved around the league over the last six seasons, most recently playing for the Pistons and Knicks during the 2023-24 campaign. Over 66 regular-season appearances last year, he averaged 10.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in 18.4 minutes per game. Burks will likely have to settle for a bench role once again this season due to Miami's talent in the backcourt, but he's a decent scorer who has been relatively productive from the perimeter over the past few seasons.

The veteran power forward has carved out a nice role off the bench in Miami, where he has been very productive in relatively short stints. Overall, he averaged 8.8 points, 6.1 rebounds and 1.5 triples across 16.8 minutes in 55 games last season. It remains to be seen if both parties will indeed come to terms on a new deal.
