Dion Waiters Fined by Heat After Saying 'F--k Patience' While Discussing Role

The Miami Heat reportedly fined shooting guard Dion Waiters for comments he made Tuesday about his limited role since returning from ankle surgery in early January.

Shandel Richardson of The Athletic reported the update Thursday. The amount wasn't immediately announced.

"F--k patience," Waiters told reporters Tuesday. "I want to play. I've been patient long enough. What do I got to be patient for? Come on man. I've been patient. I think everybody knows that. It's time. What are we waiting for? If I'm out there, play me."
