Smith was cut upon Miami's signing of Patty Mills on Tuesday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports. Smith is out for the season after tearing his ACL in November.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will look to earn another opportunity next season following his eventual return to health. The 26-year-old averaged 4.3 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists across nine appearances for Miami, although he was averaging a respectable 14.6 minutes before suffering a serious fluke injury in which he appeared to fall through an abnormality on the court in Cleveland.

The Heat announced Friday that Smith (knee) is expected to miss the remainder of the season, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

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.

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.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Smith won't return to Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers due to a right knee injury.

EDGE Analysis

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.

The Heat signed Smith to a multi-year standard NBA contract Saturday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

After making 15 NBA appearances in 2022-23 between the Heat and Nets and averaging 2.9 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 10.5 minutes, Smith re-signed with Miami on a two-way pact in July. The Heat had an opening on the 15-man roster, and Smith will ultimately step in to fill the void while Miami keeps Cole Swider, R.J. Hampton and Jamal Cain as its three two-way players heading into the start of the regular season. It's unclear if Smith will open the season with a regular spot in head coach Erik Spoelstra's rotation.

Smith (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's preseason game against the Nets, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith missed the previous contest due to a hamstring injury but will be back in action Wednesday. He figures to handle a major role, as Miami has a handful of regulars sidelined versus Brooklyn for various reasons.

Smith won't play in Sunday's preseason game against the Grizzlies due to a hamstring injury, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was solid in a spot start Friday, posting 13 points in 26 minutes, but it appears he picked up a hamstring injury as well. It's unclear how severe the injury is, but his next chance to suit up will come Wednesday against Brooklyn.

Smith racked up 13 points (5-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 26 minutes in Friday's 120-104 preseason loss to the Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Smith got the start at point guard with several regulars being rested, and he delivered a strong performance despite the loss. Smith is currently playing on a two-way deal, and given the Heat's depth in the backcourt, he's expected to begin the season in the G League with Sioux Falls.

Smith will start Friday's preseason game against the Spurs, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Heat have 10 players ruled out, including all of their normal starters. Smith will be joined by Duncan Robinson, Jamal Cain, Haywood Highsmith and Thomas Bryant in the starting five, and they all figure to play heavy minutes with Miami shorthanded.

Smith (undisclosed) will not play in Friday's Summer League game against the Nuggets,Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Miami will be without most of their regulars Friday evening as they give some other players a look. Smith earned a two-way contract with the Heat over the summer and is likely to be a featured player in the G League.
