The Miami Heat acquired veteran forward Andre Iguodala from the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday night, less than 24 hours before the NBA trade deadline, according to reports.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski broke the news and also reported Miami then signed Iguodala to a two-year, $30m contract extension. The report indicated that the package Memphis will receive will include forward Justise Winslow.
Iguodala, 36, won three championship rings with the Golden State Warriors, but he was dealt to Memphis during the offseason as part of a cost-cutting move.
Iguodala never played a game with the Grizzlies, instead receiving permission to stay away from the team as he requested a trade to a preferred destination.
