Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson declined his $19.9-million early termination option in order to become a free agent, but remains open to a new deal to remain with the team, ESPN reported Sunday.
Robinson, 31, averaged 11.0 points with 2.3 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 74 games (37 starts) for the Heat last season. In seven NBA seasons, all in Miami, he has averaged 11.3 points while hitting 1,202 3-pointers in 423 games (283 starts). Robinson is a lifetime 39.7 percent shooter from 3-point range and has attempted 3,026 of his 3,751 career shots from beyond the arc.
If Robinson had opted into his deal for 2025-26, only $9.9 million was guaranteed.
Undrafted out of Michigan after starting his career at Div. III Williams College, the 6-foot-7 sharpshooter averaged 24.1 minutes per game for the Heat last season while shooting 39.3 percent from 3-point range. He played in the 2018 NCAA Tournament championship game as a member of the Wolverines.
