It’s looked inevitable for about a year now, ever since he failed his preseason physical last September, and now it is indeed official: the Miami Heat have waived Chris Bosh. This will probably be the final, sad note to what was a remarkable career.
Chris Bosh has not played in an NBA game since Feb. 9, 2016, after which the Heat’s all-star center was forced to sit out the second half of the season for the second year in a row with blood clot issues. Bosh did not play at all this season, although he’s maintained the position that he is healthy enough to play. The…
More than a year after he last appeared in a game, Chris Bosh has reportedly reached an agreement with the Miami Heat and the NBA Players Association that will both allow him to become a free agent and the Heat to receive maximum salary cap relief.
Five days after Pat Riley announced that Chris Bosh’s career with the Miami Heat was over, Bosh has responded—vowing to return to the NBA and saying that Riley did not tell him about the team’s decision before sharing it with the media.
A few days after Chris Bosh failed a physical because of ongoing complications with blood clotting, Miami Heat president Pat Riley told reporters that Bosh’s Heat career is likely over.
According to various local reports, Chris Bosh failed a pre-training camp physical after instances of clotting were discovered in his blood work. Per the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson, the clotting is “believed to be related to one of two previous blood clot episodes” that forced Bosh to stop playing in each of the…
The Miami Heat begin training camp in six days. It’s unclear, exactly, if Chris Bosh will be there, or if he is, to what extent he will be participating. Bosh, who believes he is healthy enough to play, has been applying pressure to the Heat this offseason, and he is now pressing even harder as the season inches…
Two straight years, Chris Bosh’s season has ended in February, as he’s battled multiple occurrences of blood clots. At best, the symptoms and treatments make him unable to play basketball; at worst, his condition is life-affecting and even, potentially, fatal. Bosh wants to find a way to play, but here’s a report from…
Miami Heat big man Chris Bosh hasn’t played since the All-Star break, after a reoccurrence of the blood clots that sidelined him last season. According to a number of reports, though the blood clots have dissipated, Bosh and the Heat are at an impasse about when he can return to the court, and the situation is…
Chris Bosh is a worldly man of diverse interests, and since he hasn’t played since before the All-Star break because of blood clot complications, he has a lot more time to pursue those interests. One of them appears to be beer.
Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh pulled out of the All-Star Game because of a strained calf, but stuck around Toronto to enjoy in some of the festivities as his decision not to participate was mostly a precaution. He has since returned to Miami for additional medical tests, and those tests may have indicated something…
As everybody suspected, the Heat have officially announced that Chris Bosh will miss the rest of the season "while being treated for blood clots on his lung." [Miami Heat]
Chris Bosh was hospitalized last night so that he could get tests on his lungs, and now doctors are saying that he may have developed blood clots in his lungs. If he does have blood clots, he will most likely miss the rest of the NBA season.
Miami Heat star Chris Bosh was hospitalized for testing on his lungs Thursday, according to the Miami Herald. Joseph Goodman reports that Bosh was sick when he went to practice Wednesday, and Heat trainers sent him to see a doctor. A Heat spokesperson said that tests so far were inconclusive.

One piece of the Big Three is reportedly staying in Miami. LeBron's gone, but maybe the Heat aren't totally fucked!
LeBron James wants teams to know that when he signs his new contract, it's going to be for the maximum salary next year, which shakes out to about $20.7 million. LeBron has never been the highest paid player on any team he's ever played on and he's looking to rectify that.
The shell of Dwyane Wade has opted out of the remaining two years and 41 million dollars on his contract in hopes of signing with the same team for less money. Wade is looking instead to spread 60 million over four years. Chris Bosh has also opted out of his remaining $42 million, and is reportedly also willing to…
The biggest question of the NBA offseason will be what becomes of the Miami Heat, who obviously cannot challenge again with LeBron James, Dwyane Wade's corpse, Chris Bosh (who is good and whatever but making a shitload of money), and the rest of the crap roster. It was perhaps Pat Riley's biggest coup getting them…
