Dwyane Wade Logs 24 Points, Misses Potential Game-Winner
Miami Heat shooting guard Dwyane Wade collected a team-high 24 points during Friday’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, finishing 8-for-16 from the floor in his role as bench ace.

Dion Waiters Sinks Six Triples In Defeat
Miami Heat shooting guard Dion Waiters went 6-for-12 from behind the three-point line during Friday’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, finishing with 22 points.

He has knocked down multiple threes in nine consecutive outings, having averaged 19.3 […]
Dion Waiters Will Play on Friday
Miami Heat guard Dion Waiters (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He played 42 minutes on Wednesday, but had an MRI on his left knee afterwards.

Josh Richardson Will Play on Wednesday
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (heel) will play in Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics.

Josh Richardson is Out Next Two Games
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (heel) has been ruled out for the next two games. He will not play in Saturday's contest or Monday versus the Celtics.
