Victor Oladipo Won’t Play On Friday Night

Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo (knee) is out on Friday against Minnesota, as expected. Oladipo's status moving ahead is a mystery at the moment, but it is safe to assume that if he is to make it back this season, it likely won't be until the postseason.

Jimmy Butler Dealing With An Illness

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (illness) may not play against Minnesota on Friday evening.

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) won't play on Tuesday against the Dallas Mavericks. The 21-year-old will now miss his sixth straight contest while trying to work his way back from soreness in his right foot.
