Patrick Beverleys Contract

Guaranteed or unguaranteed?

Everyone reported originally that Patrick Beverley will be competing for the 15th and final roster spot with the other ungaranteed players, (Randolph, Hasbrouck), But it seems now he wont be.

I was reading the sports section in the Miami Herald today and on the last page, at the very bottom, i came across an article which stated " In a surprise, agent Kevin Bradbury said the Heat fully guaranteed guard Patrick Beverley's two-year, $1.2 million contract, which means Miami has 15 players with fully guaranteed deals."

Now unless the agent is full of it, it looks like the heat is set. The completed roster is as follows,

C Anthony, Z, Magloire, Pittman

PF Bosh, Haslem, Howard

SF Lebron, Miller, Jones

SG Wade, House

PG Chalmers, Arroyo, Beverely

I guess with the signing Eddie house, it was unlikely they would sign another shooter in hasbrouck, and decided on the defensive play of beverley. Dont expect him to play much though, only 12 of the 15 players will dress, and it looks like the 3 players out will be Pittman, Howard, and Beverley.
