Heat listing Luol Deng (left wrist) as questionable ahead of Game 6
Miami Heat forward Luol Deng (left wrist) is questionable for Game 6 on Friday.
What It Means:
Deng will undergo an MRI on Thursday, but he doesn't sound too worried after tripping over a photographer in Game 5. "I wanted to play through it," Deng said. "I wanted to get the X-ray and go out there and play. But [the doctor] thought just to be safe because we weren’t sure exactly from the X-rays [what it was]. "I want to be positive. We should know [more] when we get the MRI [on Thursday]. If there’s nothing serious, I’ll be playing." If Deng is unable to play, Josh Richardson and Gerald Green would see increased run.
Deng earned a top-50 nERD of 3.4 during the regular season. In the playoffs, he's averaging 14.3 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 2.0 3-pointers on a 61.9 True Shooting Percentage.
