Ira Winderman: Pat Riley says Heat have not been informed by Kelly Olynyk about his player option for next season, with that deadline on Thursday. He said Heat have yet to decide on qualifying offers to two-way free-agents Kyle Alexander, Gabe Vincent.
When it comes to “Schitt’s Creek,” the breakout television comedy that swept this year’s Emmy Awards, no one needs to fill in Miami Heat forward Kyle Alexander on the premise. He lived it. The rundown Rosebud Motel where series stars Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara saw their characters attempt to rebuild lives after their wealth was lost? Alexander was housed there for two years while attending Canadian basketball powerhouse Orangeville Prep in Ontario.
“Lived there for about nine months of the year, twice, so about 18 months total I spent living in there,” Alexander said in an interview with the Sun Sentinel during a break in the NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers. “Jamal Murray was actually my roommate the second year. We had some good memories.” And, yes, it very much was a last-chance motel setting, nothing like the bubble life that Alexander, a rookie forward out of Tennessee on a two-way contract, has experienced the past three months at Disney World.
Want to own the Rosebud Motel? Get your finances in order soon or find yourself up Schitt’s Creek. With the cast, crew and production team of “Schitt’s Creek” dominating the Emmy Awards earlier this week, we’ve spoken with the owner of the infamous Rosebud Motel in Hockley Valley and learned some interesting info about the property. Did you know multiple NBA players have lived there?
Currently serving as the president of the Athlete Institute Basketball Academy and Orangeville Prep, Tipping purchased the motel in 2011 to house recruits for what’s become the most successful prep school basketball program in Canada. Former Orangeville Prep alum and budding NBA superstar Jamal Murray, of the Denver Nuggets, lived there for two years — so did Miami Heat training camp invitee Kyle Alexander.
Though players on two-way contracts aren’t eligible for postseason, it’s possible the NBA could change that this year because of the pandemic. According to a source, that has been discussed inside the NBA Players union. If that happens, Gabe Vincent and Kyle Alexander would suddenly become options if the Heat loses a handful of players when play resumes.
