Anthony Chiang of The Miami Herald reported more details on the signing.
Via Chiang: “Nassir Little’s one-year contract with the Heat is fully non-guaranteed, according to a league source. So Heat remains about $1.6 million away from the second apron — for now.”

Little was the 25th pick in the 2019 NBA Draft out of North Carolina.
Before his stop with the Suns, Little had spent the first four years of his career with the Portland Trail Blazers.
His career averages are 5.5 points and 2.9 rebounds per contest while shooting 45.2% from the field and 33.0% from the three-point range in 237 games.
He has also appeared in seven NBA playoff games.
If Little is able to make the roster, he will be an intriguing addition to the Heat.
They have been able to get the most out of their role players in recent years.
Last year, the Heat were the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 46-36 record.
They lost to the Boston Celtics in the first round of the NBA playoffs.
