Along with the Miami Heat’s recent undrafted signings of Keshad Johnson and Zion Pullin, the team has extended qualifying offers to Cole Swider and Alondes Williams as well. They are all expected to play for Miami’s summer league roster in the coming weeks. However, Jamal Cain is reportedly not expected to receive an offer, per Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald.
Cain will now become an unrestricted free agent on June 30; it is unknown if he will be converted to a standard contract. But he is someone that can potentially replace Caleb Martin after his expected free agency departure, if he remains with the team.
In regards to Swider and Williams, the Heat released a statement on the two-way contract duo:
MIAMI, FL – The Miami HEAT announced today that they have extended qualifying offers to Cole Swider and Alondes Williams. Per club policy, terms of the deals were not disclosed.

He finished second in the G League in three-point percentage and scored in double-figures in all 14 games, including 12 20-point games and four 30-point performances.

Also good news. I do hope they convert Cain. I also suspect they will cut O Robinson.
Depends on how good or not good ware is
Cain needs to improve his FG and 3pt %’s. I would like to see Miami trade Bryant and keep Robinson.
