| The Heat plan to waive Smith (knee) on Tuesday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. The Scoop:Smith is out for the season after tearing his right ACL in November, so Miami opted to move on from him to clear up a roster spot for veteran guard Patty Mills, who was recently bought out by Atlanta. The 26-year-old Smith averaged 4.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 14.6 minutes per contest across nine appearances for Miami before suffering the season-ending injury and undergoing surgery.

| Season over The Heat announced Friday that Smith (knee) is expected to miss the remainder of the season, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports. The Scoop: An MRI revealed a third-degree right knee sprain for Smith, which will result in a premature end to his season. The second-year guard averaged 4.3 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.8 triples across 14.6 minutes in nine games. His absence will thin the depth in Miami's backcourt until they make a corresponding move. Nov 24 8:11 ET |
| Out Friday, getting MRI Smith (knee) is out for Friday's matchup against the Knicks and will be getting an MRI that day, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. The Scoop: Smith's role has fluctuated this season based on teammate availability, but now he's the one dealing with an injury. Even if his MRI returns clean, it seems unlikely he'd play Saturday against the Nets, either. Nov 23 7:34 ET |
| Suffers knee injury, ruled out Smith won't return to Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers due to a right knee injury. The Scoop: After jumping to contest a three-pointer, Smith's right leg came down into what appeared to be an opening underneath the Cavaliers bench, and the guard immediately left the contest. He won't return with what is being called a right knee injury, and he'll finish the contest scoreless over one minute. Expect Josh Richardson and Jaime Jaquez to see more work off the bench. Smith's next chance to play will come Friday against the Knicks -- the first game of a back-to-back set. Nov 23 1:37 ET |
| Dru Smith: Inks multi-year deal with Miami The Heat signed Smith to a multi-year, standard contract Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. The Scoop: Smith made 15 NBA appearances in 2022-23 between the Heat and Nets and averaged 2.9 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 10.5 minutes. Smith will likely serve as one of Miami's backup point guards behind Kyle Lowry. Oct 21 10:15 ET |
