Roberts was involved in a three-team trade Tuesday which ultimately sends him to Miami, Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical reports.
EDGE Analysis
Roberts departs Charlotte with P.J. Hairston, although Hairston will head to Memphis while Courtney Lee starts anew with the Hornets. Additionally, Chris Andersen will join Hairston in Memphis with Miami also including two future second-round picks for Memphis. As it pertains to Roberts, he's still in line for limited minutes off the bench in Miami while playing behind Goran Dragic, Tyler Johnson, and Beno Udrih. In fact, Roberts' current average of 11.1 minutes per game could take a hit under his this new position. Looking further ahead, the veteran has an expiring contract that makes him a free agent at the completion of this season, which means he'll likely have yet another employer before the 2016-17 campaign begins.
