The Miami Heat have no room for Dion Waiters

The veteran and the Miami Heat should part ways. Dion Waiters is back with the Miami Heat, but he still is on the outside looking in. He practiced with the team on Wednesday, but he will not travel with them to face the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday. To me, Dion Waiters is the odd man ...
