Malcolm Brogdon Departs Tuesday’s Contest Early
Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) has been ruled out for the second half of Tuesday's contest against the Heat as he continues to battle right Achilles soreness. The ailment had Brogdon's status in question for most of the day after he missed the team's most recent outing. Prior to his departure, Brogdon played just eight minutes and finished with one point, two assists, and one rebound. With the team also down backup point guard T.J. McConnell (wrist), Brad Wanamaker and Chris Duarte are the favorites to see elevated roles off the bench, while Caris LeVert and Domantas Sabonis should take on even more playmaking opportunities. Brogdon's next chance at suiting up comes Thursday vs. Houston.
