We had almost forgotten it, but the Heat has been playing for a month without its best scorer, Tyler Herro (22.9 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 1.4 interceptions), victim of a sprained ankle in early November in Memphis.
The 23-year-old's return to competition is nevertheless getting closer and, according to the Miami Herald, it could occur next week. Week during which the Florida franchise will face Minnesota (Monday), Orlando (Wednesday) then Atlanta (Friday).
Bam Adebayo in the dark
Victorious in nine of its fifteen games played without Tyler Herro, the Heat is also awaiting the return of another of its executives, Bam Adebayo (22.3 points, 9.9 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.0 blocks).
Absent for two weeks due to a sore hip, the interior All-Star is monitored on a daily basis by his medical staff, but there is nothing to say that he will return in the next matches for Miami…
“ He wanted to be with the guys », very cautiously declared Eric Spoelstra, as for the presence of the pivot in Charlotte on Monday, in a state where he grew up. “ He's making progress, but I don't have a specific return timetable for him. I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from his presence during this trip. »
Patience then, while the surprising Haywood Highsmith (6.5 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.1 interceptions) has also had to deal with back pain for a week.
