Dion Waiters (ankle) out on Saturday for Miami

Miami Heat guard/forward Dion Waiters will not play on Saturday night against the Charlotte Hornets.

What It Means:

Waiters has been out since the final chunk of last season, so the Heat are easing him back in. Even when he returns, it's likely that he'll be on a minutes restriction.

In 30 games last season, Waiters averaged 14.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game.
