Justise Winslow is excited to join the Miami Heat, a team that can quickly return to the playoffs after dropping to the lottery in 14-15.

“I’m looking forward to going out there and winning championships,” he said. “That’s what this organization is about. We’ve got the tools, the talent to do it. Getting it all together with the core they have, finding ways to complement that and really impact the game. The Heat expect to win every year. That’s the kind of culture that coach [team president Pat] Riley has built and I’m happy to be there.”

Winslow plans to become a rotation player on a deep Heat team.

“I just feel like I can impact the game in so many ways,” he said. “I’ll be there out on the court; I don’t know how many minutes. I don’t know if I’m starting or coming off the bench. Regardless, when I’m out there I’ll affect the game. Regardless of what team I was going to be on, I was going to be aggressive, play my game, and try to win. It definitely helps that the team I’m on is not in a rebuilding stage.”

The Miami Heat remain willing to trade away Chris Andersen to help alleviate their luxury tax bill.

Andersen is due approximately $5 million and the Heat haven't found much of a market for a trade.

The Heat, however, are expected to bring Mario Chalmers to training camp even though they haven't ruled out a trade.

The Miami Heat have signed guard Corey Hawkins. 

Hawkins, who played three seasons at University of California, Davis after transferring from Arizona State University, appeared in 86 games (84 starts) for the Aggies and averaged 19.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.45 steals while shooting 47.3 percent from the field, 41.3 percent from three-point range and 80.4 percent from the foul line.

Last season, he became the first UC Davis player to be named Big West Player of the Year, averaging 20.9 points per game and was the conference’s scoring champion for the second time in three seasons.

The Miami Heat could use their final roster spot on Dorell Wright or James Ennis.

The Heat and Wright's camp have been in talks without an offer made to this point.

Wright, 29, averaged 4.6 points in 48 games for the Trail Blazers last season.

Wright spent his first six seasons with the Heat.

Free agent center Keith Benson has agreed to a deal with the Miami Heat for training camp, a league source told RealGM.

Benson was the 48th overall pick in the 2011 NBA draft by the Atlanta Hawks, later signing with the Golden State Warriors and appearing in three games in 2012.

Benson, 27, has also played professionally in the D-League and overseas. He averaged 10 points and 5.6 rebounds per game last season with Lithuanian and Estonian teams.

A 6-foot-11 big man, Benson starred at Oakland University from 2007 to 2011. As a senior, he had averages of 17.9 points, 10.1 rebounds and 3.6 blocks.

The Miami Heat have signed guard Josh Richardson.

Richardson played for the Heat in both the Orlando Pro Summer League and Samsung NBA Summer League in Las Vegas. He played a combined 10 games (six starts), and averaged 11.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.70 steals and 1.6 assists in 26.1 minutes per game. He recorded 23 points and four steals in 30:20 minutes in his Summer League finale against the Sacramento Kings.

Richardson, who played four seasons at Tennessee, appeared in 136 career games (110 starts) for the Volunteers and averaged 9.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.08 steals and 28.2 minutes while shooting 45.6 percent from the field, 31.8 percent from three-point range and 75.8 percent from the foul line.
