The Heat have made a change to their training camp roster, adding center Warren Washington and waiving guard Caleb Daniels, according to a team release (Twitter link).
Washington went undrafted out of Texas Tech in 2024 after a five-year collegiate career that also included stops at Oregon State, Nevada and Arizona State. In 134 collegiate games, he averaged 8.1 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.1 blocks.
After not being selected in the 2024 draft, Washington suited up for the Heat’s Summer League team. He made a total of six appearances, totaling 14 points and 13 rebounds in limited time. Presumably, Miami will waive him ahead of the beginning of the regular season. While the terms of the agreement weren’t revealed, it’s almost a certainty that he agreed to an Exhibit 10 deal. If that’s the case, he’s eligible for a bonus worth up to $77.5K if he spends at least 60 days with the Sioux Falls Skyforce (Miami’s G League affiliate).
Daniels was occupying a spot on the 21-man roster on an Exhibit 10 deal. He’s likely to head back to Sioux Falls for a second straight season. He averaged 12.3 points while shooting 36.8% from deep for the Skyforce last season across 47 games. He helped the Skyforce to the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference G League playoffs last season and then was a member of the Heat squad that won the Summer League championship in Las Vegas. He averaged 6.0 points in seven summer league games this year.
Daniels appeared in one preseason game, recording eight points behind a pair of threes and nine rebounds. Miami has 21 players under contract, with Washington joining Isaiah Stevens and Zyon Pullin on Exhibit 10 deals.
