"I can't say enough about H," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said of Highsmith before wrapping up a long six-game trip on Sunday. "Tyler [Herro] has gotten a lot of headlines, as well he should right now. But the tough thing about this league is you have somebody like H, who has really played at an exceptionally high level in that role as a defender, as an impact role player that fills in all the intangibles for your team."
"The Heat initially pursued Martin and offered a contract that would have paid him in excess of $60 million over five seasons, but the two sides could not agree to a new deal."
"While the initial plan to retain Martin didn't work out, the Heat has been very pleased with its investment in Highsmith through the first few weeks of the season."
