I know this isn't BU related. I tried searching on Google and didn't really see anything. I know the Heat released him. I was wondering if anyone knew his status? Is he going overseas? Is he going to work out some more for next year? Is he done? I can't seem to find any info.
 
Actually, the Miami Heat traded Shaun Livingston to the Memphis Grizzlies, who then released him. Therefore he is a free agent, and could be signed by any team.

The strongest rumor I have seen is that the Miami Heat might bring him back to Miami for the rest of the season. They have been trying to trade for another backup point guard since they traded Marcus Banks, but nothing materialized and the trade deadline passed last Thursday. However, they have until March 1st to sign a free agent like Livingston, and still have them eligible for the playoffs.-

Also see the last paragraph of the first section of this blog. It appears that Shaun has said he is leaning toward returning to Miami.-

Here is an update from the Tulsa 66ers web site:

The Oklahoma City Thunder signed guard Shaun Livingston of the Tulsa 66ers today making him the 19th GATORADE Call-Up of the 2008-09 NBA Development League season. He becomes the 76th NBA player to have NBA D-League experience.

Livingston, a 6-7 guard, has played in 11 games, 10 starts, since being acquired by the 66ers on March 7, 2009. He is averaging 9.5 points, 6.0 assists and 3.0 rebounds in 28.4 minutes and has scored in double figures five times, including a season-high 22 points in a 112-110 win at Rio Grande Valley on March 27, 2009.

Originally drafted by the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round (4th overall) of the 2004 NBA Draft, Livingston has played in 149 career NBA games for the Clippers and the Miami Heat, averaging 7.4 points, 4.7 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 26.3 minutes.

Livingston is expected to join the Thunder today in San Antonio and be available when the team takes on the Spurs tonight.

That is solid....hope he stays healthy and has a great career
 
Most of his minutes were with Russell Westbrook on the floor as well. He looked pretty good if less explosive. All in all he had one of the better OKC guys on the floor as my Blazers took them behind the woodshed.
