James Johnson Practices on Tuesday

Miami Heat forward James Johnson (groin) was able to practice on Tuesday, but has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Johnson has been able to practice two days in a row. However, he's not quite 100 percent yet, so the Heat are going to be cautious and hold him out of […]

Wayne Ellington Remains Sidelined for Wednesday

Miami Heat guard/forward Wayne Ellington (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. He still has not made his season debut, but did go through shootaround on Saturday. Head coach Erik Spoelstra wants Ellington to get through a full practice before letting him return to game action. It sounds like […]

Justise Winslow is Probable on Wednesday

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (hamstring) is probable for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. Winslow is set to make his season debut after dealing with a lingering hamstring issue.

Andrew Wiggins is Questionable for Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Andrew Wiggins (thigh) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors.

Brooklyn Nets forward Rodions Kurucs (ankle) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
