  • Justin Champagnie: Let go by Miami

    The Heat waived Champagnie on Saturday.

    Champagnie spent the preseason with the Heat but was cut along with big man Cheick Diallo as Miami reduced its roster to 15 men ahead of the regular season. Unless he's scooped up off waivers by another team, Champagnie looks set to open the 2023-24 campaign with the Heat's G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce.

  • Heat's Justin Champagnie: Joining Miami

    Champagnie signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Heat on Friday.

    Champagnie spent time at the NBA level last season between the Celtics and Raptors in 2022-23 and also suited up in 23 games for the Heat's G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce. Though the 6-foot-6 forward ended the campaign as a member of Boston's 15-man roster, he was cut loose in July and will now rejoin the Heat organization. Champagnie will get the chance to battle for a roster spot in training camp, but the Heat signed him mainly for the purpose of retaining his G League rights heading into the 2023-24 season. In his 23 appearances for the Skyforce in 2022-23, Champagnie averaged 18.2 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 31.3 minutes.

  • Celtics' Justin Champagnie: Signing with Boston

    Champagnie agreed to a contract with the Celtics on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

    Champagnie recently wrapped up a stint with the G League's Sioux City Skyforce, with whom he appeared in 23 games (15 starts) and averaged 18.2 points (on 52 percent shooting from the field), 8.0 rebounds, 1.5 three-pointers, 1.0 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.7 blocks in 31.3 minutes per contest.
