Southeast Notes: Spoelstra, Adebayo, Suggs, Miller
The Miami-area residence of Heat coach Erik Spoelstra caught fire shortly after the team returned from a road trip. Early Thursday morning, a two-alarm blaze broke out at the multi-million dollar property, according to reports by Milena Malaver, Carl Juste, and David Neal from the Miami Herald.
The Heat and Spoelstra arrived on a chartered flight from Denver at 5 a.m. ET, approximately 25 minutes after firefighters were dispatched to his Miami-Dade home. The property, located on a 43,000-square-foot lot, was sold for $6.6 million in 2023.
Firefighters battled the flames for over four hours at the five-bedroom house, which includes a pool and tennis courts. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
