Eddie House hit 6-of-9 shots and three 3-pointers for 15 points in Wednesday's easy win.

He's shown signs of getting hot this season, but with this game being over after the first quarter, we're simply going to keep an eye on him.

Eddie House (shoulder) returned to action on Thursday, and played 27 minutes off the bench to finish with nine points on 3-of-6 shooting (with three 3-pointers), four rebounds and three assists.

He won't get nearly this much run once Dwyane Wade (hamstring, personal) returns, but with Mike Miller (thumb) out indefinitely he's worth watching in deeper formats for his 3-point shooting.

Eddie House, who underwent shoulder surgery in June, is targeting Thursday's preseason game against the Hawks for his return to action.

Could he hit a ton of threes standing around watching the Super Friends break down defenses? Sure, but he's going to have to stand in line to do it. He's not draftable unless you're in a 30-team league, but if he gets hot he may be picked up on the wire this year.

Eddie House likely won't be cleared by doctors to play for about two weeks as he continues his recovery from June shoulder surgery.

He suffered a setback in training camp last week and did not play Tuesday against Detroit. House said he visited with a doctor Tuesday and is still a couple of weeks away from being cleared, meaning he's questionable for the start of the regular season.

Heat guard Eddie House sat out of Friday's practice with shoulder soreness and is expected to miss the team's first scrimmage on Friday night.

House underwent surgery in June on his left shoulder to repair a ligament tear and to treat a bone spur, which is the shoulder that flared up on Thursday. "We just didn't want to make nothing into something," House said. "It just got a little irritated and we wanted to calm it down. We'll see how it feels [Saturday]." Consider House day-to-day for now.

Eddie House officially signed with the Heat on Wednesday.

The deal is believed to be for two years and $2.8 million, and while he may hit a 3-pointer per game, it's hard to imagine him contributing much more during the Heat's regular season.

Guard Eddie House has agreed to a two-year, $2.8 million deal with the Heat.

House, who is an excellent 3-point shooter, is another nice get for the Heat, although he struggled with the Knicks last season. He was previously a nice role player for the Celtics though, and should reprise his role off the bench for the Heat.

The Bulls are interested in free agent guards Eddie House, Keith Bogans, and Roger Mason.

The Bulls have 11 players under contract and are looking to fill the final spot on the active roster with a guard. It appears House is their primary target, but they aren't the only team pursuing him.

The Celtics have had discussions about bringing back free agent G Eddie House.

House was a major part of the second unit that helped the Celtics win the title in 2008, but was shipped to the Knicks at the deadline last year. If he wants to go back to Boston, he'll have to do it for the veteran minimum of about $1.35 million. He'l likely see if his agent can muster up a better offer than that first.
