Conexión con Miami
Rozier quickly integrated into the Heat's high-intensity culture post-trade, contributing to their competitive Eastern Conference standing with gritty defense and clutch scoring in his debut season. His residence in Southwest Ranches, South Florida, ties him locally, though his 2025 arrest in an FBI gambling probe involving leaked NBA insider info has stirred concern among Miami Heat fans and impacted team roster flexibility amid his $26.6M contract.

Terry Rozier III, born March 17, 1994, rose to prominence at the University of Louisville, averaging 17 points per game on the 2014-15 Cardinals team that reached the Elite Eight, before being drafted 16th overall by the Boston Celtics in 2015. He later thrived as a starter with the Charlotte Hornets for four-and-a-half seasons, showcasing his scoring prowess with career averages of 13.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.5 assists over 665 games. Traded to the Miami Heat on January 23, 2024, in exchange for Kyle Lowry and a protected first-round pick, Rozier debuted the next day and became a key rotation player. In October 2025, he was arrested by the FBI for alleged involvement in an illegal sports betting scheme, providing insider NBA information for bets while with the Hornets in 2023; he pled not guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering, was released on $3M bond, and placed on indefinite unpaid NBA leave one game into the 2025-26 season.
