While the addition of veteran center Cody Zeller filled a frontcourt need for the Miami Heat, it still remains unclear what type of role he’ll play.
Zeller, a nine-year veteran, signed his new contract with the Heat on Monday. He agreed to a prorated minimum deal for the remainder of the season that will make him an unrestricted free agent this upcoming summer.
“Not specifically, but I’m fine with that,” Zeller said Wednesday during a Zoom call with a group of South Florida-based reporters when asked if he has received any clarity from the Heat on what his role will be. “I’ll do whatever role they want me to. I feel like I’m healthy. I can help a team if I’m called on. I’ll fit in wherever they need me.”
