Miami Heat guard Dion Waiters intends to decline his 2017-18 player option to enter unrestricted free agency on July 1, league sources tell ESPN. Waiters, 25, will turn down an option worth a little more than $3.2 million. His consistent production this past season bodes well for a considerable salary increase. June 29 is Waiters' official deadline date. Sources say the Heat are aware of his intentions. He had a breakout season under head coach Erik Spoelstra. In his lone season with the Heat, Waiters registered career highs in rebounds (3.3), assists (4.3) and 3-point percentage (40%). - See more at: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...rd-dion-waiters-decline-2017-18-player-option
