Miami Heat vs. Cleveland Cavaliers Injury Report: Bam Adebayo Listed As Probable

The injury report for the Miami Heat’s Wednesday night matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers

The Miami Heat (9-5) are looking to take down the Cleveland Cavaliers (8-6) on Wednesday evening.

Miami found redemption in the form of a blowout win on Monday against the Chicago Bulls after Chicago snapped their seven-game win streak on Saturday. Meanwhile, Cleveland is fresh off an electric overtime victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.

Injury Report:

Donovan Mitchell: Out - Right Hamstring; Strain

Isaac Okoro: Out - Left Knee; Injury Management

Although Adebayo is listed as probable, his presence is critical to the Heat’s success. Cleveland’s frontcourt of Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen delivered problems to reigning MVP Joel Embiid, combining for 44 points and 25 rebounds in the victory.

Love contributed 11 points and eight rebounds in Monday’s win, while Caleb Martin’s struggles continue since returning from injury.

With Mitchell sidelined, the Heat should focus on shutting down Allen, Darius Garland, and Max Strus. He is Cleveland’s No. 1 option on offense, but their balanced attack showed promise against Philadelphia.
