    Cain signed his qualifying offer Friday and will return to the Heat on a two-way contract, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

  • Heat's Jamal Cain: Returns to G League

    The Heat assigned Cain to the Sioux Falls Skyforce of the G League on Tuesday.

    Cain's recent elevation to the NBA squad was short-lived, and he didn't receive any playing time. With Miami being relatively healthy at the moment, the two-way guard will likely have to wait until there are further injuries to receive his next opportunity with the Heat.

  • Heat's Jamal Cain: Rejoins Miami, available Friday

    Cain has rejoined the Heat and will be available for Friday's matchup against the Mavericks, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    Cain scored 27 and 36 points, respectively, in his past two G League appearances with the Sioux Falls Skyforce and has been awarded with an elevation. Miami is relatively healthy, so it's unlikely Cain sees an expanded role against Dallas, though he has played at least 20 minutes in each of his last three NBA appearances.
