Free agent wing Nassir Little has reached an agreement on a one-year deal with the Miami Heat, league source tells me.

Have confirmed. Surprising because not eligible for two-way deal due to NBA tenure. Even more surprising because Heat cannot add another deal without going into second tax apron . . . unless someone currently under guarantee is on the way out.

But with non-guaranteed deal, Heat have several pro-rated days of pay with such a 15th man before entering second apron. So Heat could start with camp max of 15 under standard contract, thus delaying later moves. Lots of moving parts apparently at play.
