As reported by: Chris Hine Other tagged players: Naz Reid Bam Adebayo, Tyler Herro both to warm up and be game-time decisions Saturday.
Bam Adebayo, Tyler Herro both to warm up and be game-time decisions Saturday. Coach Spoelstra said both Tyler Herro (wrist) and Bam Adebayo (knee) remain questionable and will go through their pregame routines before a status is determined. In Adebayo’s absence, Dewayne Dedmon has stepped into the starting lineup. Although projecting well, Dedmon hasn’t exactly smashed given his opportunity this year. Dedmon will have another opportunity here if Bam is out, while also leaving the door for increased opportunity for Jimmy Butler to fill more of the offensive void.
As reported by: Miami Heat Other tagged players: Tyler Herro Tyler Herro (wrist) participated in shootaround Saturday, remains questionable.
Tyler Herro (wrist) participated in shootaround Saturday, remains questionable. Herro had previously been upgraded from Out, to questionable. Now that he has participated in shootaround Saturday morning, it seems increasingly likely he will be able to suit up for the Heat on Saturday. In the game he missed on Thursday, Butler was spectacular with 32 points and 5 assists. If he returns, that will take some usage and playmaking opportunities away from Butler and Lowry, however if Adebayo is out, there is still plenty of usage to go around.
