Heat re-sign Anthony; formalize Miller signing

Basketball Betting Lines

07/16/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Miami Heat continued filling out their roster on Friday by re-signing center Joel Anthony and inking second-round draft pick Dexter Pittman.

The team also formalized the signing of free agent guard Mike Miller to a reported five-year deal worth about $25 million. A career 40.5 percent three- point shooter, Miller has been on three teams the last three years, playing 54 games for Washington last season and averaging 13.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.9 assists.

It's been a whirlwind week for the Heat following the re-signing of guard Dwyane Wade and the additions of LeBron James and Chris Bosh.

Anthony has started 45 of the 169 games he's played in during his three seasons with the Heat, averaging 2.6 points and 3.2 rebounds. He has also averaged 1.38 blocks.

"This contract with Joel Anthony is a testament to the man who is second to none; who has worked hard and deserved this," said Heat president Pat Riley. "We felt that what he has done over the last couple of years in developing his game, his body and his knowledge warrants this reward. If other NBA non- drafted free agents want a prototype to follow, Joel Anthony is that man."

Pittman, a 6-foot-10 center, averaged 6.6 points and 4.0 rebounds while shooting 62.3 percent from the field in 134 games at the University of Texas. He was the 32nd overall draft pick.

"One of our priorities in the draft was to make sure that we could augment the depleted center position with the loss of Jermaine O'Neal," Riley said. "Dexter has the size and agility to be a very productive player for us in the long run, and there is no better place for him to improve than in the Miami Heat system."
