Heat say Goran Dragic without formal minutes cap

Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (calf) will not have a formal minutes cap during his start against the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday.

What It Means:

He will likely be in the mid 20s for minutes while splitting time with Beno Udrih. Dragic was playing well before his calf issue, but it might take him a few games to get his legs back.

Dragic ranks 98th with a -2.1 nERD in 37 games played this season. He is averaging 12.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 5.0 assists while hitting 33 percent of his 3-pointers. His 20.2 Usage Rate is his lowest mark since his rookie season.
