Dion Waiters (ankle) listed as inactive for the Heat's season opener

Miami Heat guard/forward Dion Waiters is listed as inactive for the Heat's opening game at the Orlando Magic.

What It Means:

Waiters has been making progress from the ankle surgery he underwent in late January, but he's still not ready to return. Teammate James Johnson will likely be inactive as well, though Wayne Ellington is looking like he'll be able to play.

Waiters finished the 2017-18 season with 14.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.8 steals, and 1.7 3PM per game.
