Dru Smith Out For Season With An Achilles Injury
1 day agoMiami Heat guard Dru Smith (Achilles) has been ruled out for the rest of the season. He tore his left Achilles in Monday's game against Brooklyn. This is a very unfortunate blow for Smith, who had just carved out a significant role on the team for himself, averaging 29.3 minutes over a six-game stretch before Monday's action. It's made worse by the fact that Smith lost most of the 2023-24 campaign to a knee injury and also had a season-ending injury in 2021-22 in the G League. Smith notched 6.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.5 steals in 19.1 minutes while he was healthy this term. Rookie Pelle Larsson will likely soak in most of his minutes.
