MIAMI (AP) - Heat President Pat Riley has been named the NBA’s 2010-11 Executive of the Year by the Sporting News.

Riley engineered some major offseason moves last summer, not only convincing Dwyane Wade to stay in Miami, but luring LeBron James and Chris Bosh to join him.
Chicago general manager Gar Forman was second in the Sporting News balloting, while Denver vice president of basketball operations Masai Ujiri was third.
