La Bomba Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Robert Dozier, the 6-9 forward out of the University of Memphis selected by the Miami Heat with the final pick of the NBA Draft, has agreed to terms with a team in Greece. Dozier, who had been working out the past month at AmericanAirlines Arena after being taken with the No. 60 selection in June's second round, has signed a one-year deal with Colossus Rhodes, a team in Greece's first division. Colossus Rhodes also lists former 76ers forward Steven Smith and former Kansas State forward Lance Harris on its roster. Heat president Pat Riley last week said his team was poised to deal with the status of its two second-round picks. Also acquired in the second round was former Arkansas guard Pat Beverley, in a draft-night trade with the Lakers. The Heat did not have a first-round selection. "Both of them have had great summers," Riley said. Dozier had spent time at both small forward and power forward during the Heat's summer camp last month, at times outplaying Heat veteran Dorell Wright. http://www.commercialappeal.com/news/2009/aug/10/dozier-spurns-miami-for-greek-team/ I think we'll eventually see Dozier in the NBA, although his playing time will be limited.
