Miami Heat's Terry Rozier has asked a judge to modify his release terms, citing restrictions that prevent him from pursuing free agency in the NBA. The move comes as Rozier is in arbitration with the Heat over his base salary for the 2025-26 season. Rozier's attorney, Jim Trusty, requested that a restriction preventing Rozier from contacting the Charlotte Hornets, his former team, be removed from his release conditions. The request comes as Rozier has been in arbitration with the NBA and the Miami Heat over his base salary for the 2025-26 season. According to the filing, the arbitrator in the dispute initially ruled that Rozier should receive his salary, but months later determined that the conditions of his release render him in breach of his contractual obligation to play. With the NBA's free agency process officially beginning June 30, maintaining the Hornets on the no-contact list would likely prevent him from having any opportunity to play in the NBA, Trusty wrote. Federal prosecutors agreed to remove a similar restriction on contact with the Heat, but oppose the removal of the Hornets' restriction, according to the filing. Rozier has pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering. He will be arraigned on June 10 on additional charges filed last week, including sports bribery and honest services fraud.
