Former Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier resurfaced on social media to take a pointed shot at his old team after the Minnesota Timberwolves spoiled Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Heat debut with a 131-106 rout on opening night.
Former Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier faced criticism from fans after calling out current Heat guard Davion Mitchell on social media following Miami's 131-106 opening-night loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Rozier claimed Mitchell copied his on-court style and number, prompting backlash from supporters who dismissed his remarks. The game marked Giannis Antetokounmpo's regular-season debut for Miami, in which he scored 35 points before fouling out, while Mitchell contributed 11 points and 10 assists.
Rozier remains out of the NBA due to an ongoing gambling investigation involving alleged betting prop schemes during his tenure with the Charlotte Hornets. The report notes that Heat president Pat Riley distanced the franchise from Rozier following the charges. Despite Rozier clarifying that his comments were not an attack on Heat culture, the social media activity drew widespread mockery from fans focused on the team's new era.
