The injury report for the Miami Heat’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday.
MIAMI HEAT
On Friday evening, the Miami Heat (12-9) will face the Cleveland Cavaliers (12-9) at the Kaseya Center.
Despite injuries, the Miami Heat defeated the Toronto Raptors 112-103 on Wednesday. Meanwhile, the Cavaliers defeated the No. 3 seed Orlando Magic by double digits.
Report on Injuries:
HEAT
Bam Adebayo: Out – Left Hip Contusion
Tyler Herro: Out – Right Ankle Sprain
Haywood Highsmith: Out – Lower Back Contusion
Dru Smith: Out – Right ACL 3rd Degree Sprain
Duncan Robinson: Probable – Left Groin Strain
Caleb Martin: Available – Left Shoulder Contusion
CAVS
Emoni Bates: Out – G League – Two-Way
Ty Jerome: Out – Right Ankle Sprain
Caris LeVert: Out – Left Knee Injury Management
Ricky Rubio: Out – Not With Team
Evan Mobley: Questionable – Left Knee Soreness
The Heat have proved time and time again their ability to overcome adversity, which they must do once again. Without Adebayo and Herro, one of their multitude of scoring options must step up. Martin was their star against Toronto, recording 24 points and 12 rebounds.
Cleveland suffers a major loss if Mobley is unable to play. He is their defensive anchor, much like Adebayo acts for Miami. In addition to this concern, LeVert provides efficient scoring.
These Eastern Conference contenders are often compared, making for an exciting matchup.
