MIAMI, FL – The Miami HEAT announced today that they have converted the contract of guard/forward Max Strus to a two-way contract. Per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Strus appeared in two preseason games with Miami this season averaging a team-leading 16.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists while shooting 50 percent (12-of-24) from the field and 47.4 percent (9-of-19) from three-point range. He posted 22 points, all off the bench, last night against Toronto while connecting on 6-of-8 from beyond the arc, helping the HEAT to a, 117-105, win.
Strus split last season between the Chicago Bulls and their G League affiliate, the Windy City Bulls.
