The Miami Heat announced today that they have signed guard Corey Hawkins. Per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Hawkins is a 3-point specialist and the son of former NBA guard Hersey Hawkins. He played three seasons at University of California, Davis after transferring from Arizona State University, and appeared in 86 games for the Aggies and averaged 19.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.45 steals while shooting 47.3 percent from the field, 41.3 percent from three-point range and 80.4 percent from the foul line.
Last season, he became the first UC Davis player to be named Big West Player of the Year, averaging 20.9 points per game and was the conference’s scoring champion for the second time in three seasons.
Ranking No. 1 in the NCAA in three-point field goal percentage (.488) and seventh in points per game, he helped lead the Aggies to its first Big West regular season title.
