Since there aren't any takers for Josh McRoberts, the Miami Heat are throwing in the towel and moving forward with him on the roster.

The team contacted McRoberts' camp to inform him he's in their plans for the 2016-17 regular season, his agent told the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson. Management checked in with the nine-year pro to go over his offseason training and ensure both parties are on the same page.

Miami reportedly sought to get rid of McRoberts' contract during negotiations with former franchise player Dwyane Wade, but wasn't able to move the $5.7 million he's owed this upcoming season. McRoberts also has a player option worth a touch over $6 million in 2017-18.

He's been an injury risk throughout most of his run in the league, only suiting up for 70 or more games in a season twice. McRoberts was limited to just 17 appearances in 2014-15 after tearing his right meniscus, and 42 appearances last season due to a bruised knee.

The 29-year-old forward averaged 3.6 points on 37.2 percent shooting, along with 2.5 rebounds and 1.9 assists, in 14.2 minutes off the bench last year.
