For the first time since 2018, the Miami Heat returned Tuesday to Eleanor R. Baldwin Arena, home of the FAU men’s basketball team.
They’ll continue training camp at FAU until Saturday, ahead of their first preseason game against the Charlotte Hornets on Oct. 10.
“We love it up here,” said head coach Erik Spoelstra on the Heat returning to FAU. “We’ve had so many training camps, it’s kind of nostalgic for us. I remember we–actually we sat down after our team meeting, [president] Pat Riley, myself, [senior VP of basketball operations and general manager] Andy [Elisburg], [senior advisor of basketball operations] Chet Kammerer, [vice president of basketball operations, assistant general manager] Adam Simon, and just remembering that very first training camp when Pat brought the team up here.
