MIAMI (AP) - Eddie House's agent says the veteran guard has
agreed to terms on a $2.8 million, two-year contract with the Miami
Heat.
Agent Mark Bartelstein said Thursday that the second year is a
player option.
House was a second-round draft pick by the Heat in 2000 and
spent his first three NBA seasons with them. He has since played
for eight other teams, including Boston and New York last season,
when he averaged 7.0 points in 68 games off the bench.
His career average is 7.6 points, and he's a 39-percent shooter
from 3-point range, with a reputation for making clutch baskets.
House will be a strong contender for a reserve role as part of
the Heat's supporting cast for Dwyane Wade, LeBron James and Chris
Bosh.
