AP Interview: Haslem Reveals Why He Chose To Return To Heat

MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — The longest tenured member of the Miami Heat is coming back for another season.

Udonis Haslem arrived at the Heat facility for a workout one day last week, and was told he needed to sign a waiver before he took the court.

The reason: Technically, he wasn’t on the team.

“That was a little weird, having to do that,” Haslem said.

It won’t be a problem for the next year. Haslem officially signed his one-year, $2.4 million contract with the Heat on Monday, a deal that was struck last week and finally became official when he put pen to paper.
