CHICAGO: Dwyane Wade has signed his contract with the Chicago Bulls.
After spending his entire NBA career in Miami, Wade officially became a former Heat player Friday when he inked the two-year deal with the Bulls that will pay him about $47 million.
The Chicago native played 13 seasons in Miami, scoring more than 20,000 points and getting selected to 12 All-Star teams.
General Manager Gar Forman says in a release that Wade “provides a great veteran perspective on the court and in the locker room” and “will be a tremendous fit with our team.”
Nets sign veteran guard Randy Foye
The Brooklyn Nets have signed veteran guard Randy Foye.
Foye split last season between Denver and Oklahoma City, averaging 5.9 points. Foye is a career 37 percent shooter from 3-point range and ranked among the top 10 in 3-pointers made in three straight seasons from 2011-14.
Terms of the deal were not announced Friday.
Foye has averaged 10.8 points in 10 NBA seasons.
Cavaliers agree to deal with Chris Andersen
A person with knowledge of the details says the Cleveland Cavaliers have agreed to a deal with center Chris Andersen.
Andersen will get a one-year contract for the veteran’s minimum, the person told The Associated Press on Friday on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been announced.
The 38-year-old Andersen rejoins LeBron James, his former teammate in Miami when the Heat won an NBA title and played in another NBA Finals in 2013-14. Andersen split last season between Miami and Memphis, averaging 3.9 points and 3.6 rebounds.
The Cavaliers also traded center Sasha Kaun and cash considerations to Philadelphia for the rights to forward Chukwudiebere Maduabum. That helped clear salary for the Cavs to sign Andersen. They were in need of a backup center after Timofey Mozgov signed with the Los Angeles Lakers.
