A home registered to Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra<\/strong> burnt to the ground in a massive, early morning fire, according to authorities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue were called to a fire at approximately 4:30 a.m. on Thursday, November 6, Battalion Chief Victoria Byrd<\/strong> said during a brief press conference.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over 20 units responded to the blaze, which was described as \u201ctall as the trees.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur units came in, did an excellent job,\u201d Byrd said. \u201cWe used multiple aerial apparatuses, fire engines and rescues to help combat this incident. Due to the privacy wall and a lot of the tree cover, it was very difficult to access with only one point of entry.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Byrd said the fire was eventually extinguished as members of fire and rescue \u201cdid the best job they could.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Aerial footage from above the home showed nearly the entire property destroyed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Video captured by Local 10 News<\/a> showed Spoelstra, 55, outside of the home after the blaze. The outlet described Spoelstra as \u201cdistraught.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Heat assistant coach Chris Quinn<\/strong> was also seen in the footage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Spoelstra and the Heat played in Denver against the Nuggets on Wednesday, November 5. The team\u2019s charter flight did not land back in Miami until 5:11 a.m. on Thursday, according to the Associated Press<\/i>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Heat are scheduled to play at home against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday, November 7.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A neighbor told Local 10 News reporter that Spoelstra\u2019s home had been under renovation for at least a year. The neighbor believed the renovations may have recently been completed, as Spoelstra reportedly held a large party in his backyard not long ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire remains unknown.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the Miami Herald<\/i><\/a>, firefighters battled the blaze for more than four hours.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Spoelstra purchased the 5,700 square-foot home, which had five bedrooms and 3 \u00bd bathrooms, in December 2023.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
