Injury Report: Miami Heat vs. Brooklyn Nets
It's been a long time since the Brooklyn Nets played a contest with a completely clean injury report. That has a great chance of changing on Wednesday night at Barclays Center.
The Nets had no injuries to report heading into the contest vs. the Miami Heat. The clean injury report means that guard Seth Curry (left adductor strain) will return after missing the last five games with the injury. There is no update at this time on whether he will be under a minutes restriction for the matchup.
On the other side of the court, it's the complete opposite for Miami. The Heat will be without a large majority of their key role players for the Wednesday night away game.
The team has ruled cornerstone guard Tyler Herro (left knee contusion), rookie guard Nikola Jovic (lower back, stress reaction), and veteran guard Victor Oladipo (left knee soreness) out vs. the Nets. Miami will also be without big man Omer Yurtsecen (left ankle surgery).
The Heat will have one question mark ahead of their game vs. the Nets. The team has listed three-point marksman Duncan Robinson (right second finger surgery) as questionable. There is no further update on the wing's status at the time of this writing.
The game between the two teams will mark the third of four meetings this season. The Nets have won the two contests played vs. the Heat this season, and are looking for their third-straight win. That would mark their first three-game winning streak against Miami since the 2017-2018 season.
The contest between Brooklyn and Miami is the last game before both teams hit the NBA All-Star break. While the Nets will have none of their players representing the borough in Salt Lake City, Utah, the Heat will have their cornerstone big man Bam Adebayo. He will be coming off the bench in Sunday's NBA All-Star Game.
