Sources: Erik Spoelstra agrees to long-term Miami Heat extension

Two-time championship coach Erik Spoelstra has agreed to a long-term contract extension with the Miami Heat, league sources told ESPN.

Spoelstra, who would've been entering the final season of his deal, quietly negotiated a new deal that allows him to continue as the league's second-longest tenured coach with one team behind San Antonio's Gregg Popovich.

Spoelstra will be starting his 12th season as the franchise's head coach when the Heat open training camp on Tuesday. Spoelstra has a .590 regular season winning percentage and .602 in the playoffs, including four trips to the NBA Finals and two NBA titles (2012 and 2013).
