Miami Heat Will Be Without Butler, Adebayo, Dragic, Among Others

The Miami Heat had to go through some Covid protocols due to contact tracing, which led to Sunday night’s game against Boston being postponed.

Miami will be without Bam Adebayo, Jimmy Butler, Goran Dragic, Kendrick Nunn, Avery Bradley, KZ Okpala, Moe Harkless, and Udonis Haslem due to the protocols.

That means Miami will be looking for huge boosts from their young guys if the game is played. The players available include Tyler Herro, Duncan Robinson, Precious Achiuwa, Andre Iguodala, Meyers Leonard, Kelly Olynyk, Max Strus, Chris Silva, and Gabe Vincent.

Meyers and Kelly are currently questionable for tomorrow’s game, while Gabe is probable.

If one of Meyers or Kelly play tomorrow, they will have the eight needed players for the game to continue.

So as discussed before, it’ll be a time for Miami’s young and evolving players to get improved reps in a very different circumstance. It means Duncan and Tyler will get many shots up, and could be huge for both of their games going forward since it’ll give them great rhythm.

The Miami Heat play the Philadelphia 76ers tomorrow, and as seen here, it’ll be very interesting.
