Alexander's agent said Monday that his client won't be returning to the Heat in 2020-21 after the team rescinded his qualifying offer, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
After going undrafted out of Tennessee in 2019, Alexander joined the Heat for training camp and was eventually awarded a two-way roster spot in January. Alexander made two appearances for Miami in the regular season, but he evidently wasn't able to distinguish himself enough during his time with the organization to retain a two-way spot heading into 2020-21. If he doesn't land with another team before training camp, Alexander may have to head overseas or to the G League to find work.

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Sunday that Alexander (knee) has been a "full go" in practices since the team arrived in Orlando for the resumption of the 2019-20 season, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Alexander signed a two-way deal with the Heat in mid-January, but the undrafted rookie out of Tennessee has yet to make his NBA debut after he suffered a hyperextension and PCL sprain to his right knee while playing for Miami's G League affiliate in Sioux Falls. With the G League season having since been canceled, Alexander will be with the Heat for the duration of its run in Orlando, though he likely won't be in store for anything more than garbage-time run.

EDGE Analysis
The two-way rookie big man has yet to make his NBA debut, as he's been sidelined since early January after suffering a PCL sprain and hyperextended right knee in an appearance with the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce. He's without a clear timeline to return to action in the G League.

The two-way player has yet to make his NBA debut and hasn't suited up for the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce since Jan. 5 while recovering from a PCL sprain and a hyperextended right knee. The Heat have yet to release a timeline for the big man's return to the court.

Alexander (knee) is listed as out for Saturday's game against the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
Alexander has yet to debut for the Heat and hasn't appeared for the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce since Jan. 5 with a PCL sprain and a hyperextended right knee. The organization has yet to issue a timeline for his return, so his absence looks like it could drag into March.

The Heat list Alexander (knee) as out for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
The two-way player remains without a clear timeline to return to action in the G League or with the Heat while he's dealing with a hyperextended right knee in addition to a PCL sprain. Alexander's last game action came with the Sioux Falls Skyforce back on Jan. 5.

Alexander (knee) remained sidelined Tuesday in the G League Sioux Falls Skyforce's 117-103 loss to the Agua Caliente Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
Though the Heat signed Alexander to one of its two two-way slots earlier this month, the undrafted rookie has yet to appear for either the parent club or in the G League since agreeing to the deal. He continues to tend to a right knee injury, which he apparently suffered in his most recent outing for Sioux Falls back on Jan. 5. Once he's deemed healthy, Alexander will likely see the bulk of his action with Sioux Falls.

Alexander has agreed to a two-way contract with the Heat, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Alexander was previously on a G League contract with the Sioux Falls Skyforce -- the Heat's G League affiliate. He's been upgraded to a two-way contract, giving him the ability to move up and down between the NBA and the G League, but he's expected to remain in the G League for the time being.

EDGE Analysis
Alexander led the Skyforce offensively by totaling 16 points over 57 percent shooting from the field and finished just one rebound shy of a double-double. The 23-year-old is currently posting a superb campaign in the G League with 11.8 points and 10.1 rebounds per contest.
