The Miami Heat are set to take on the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday evening, with the Heat looking to end their three-game losing streak. The Nuggets, on the other hand, have been in fine form, winning nine of their last 10 games.
In terms of injuries, Miami’s Jimmy Butler is listed as probable with a head illness, while Jamal Cain is out due to G League commitments. Tyler Herro remains sidelined with right foot medial tendinitis, and Kevin Love is also out with a right heel bruise. However, Caleb Martin is available despite a left thumb sprain, and Josh Richardson and Alondes Williams are both out due to G League assignments.
For the Nuggets, Vlatko Cancar is out following left knee surgery, while Braxton Key, Jalen Pickett, and Hunter Tyson are unavailable due to G League assignments.
Herro and Love’s absences have been felt by the Heat, with Herro averaging 20.8 points and Love providing a boost off the bench. The Nuggets, led by two-time MVP Nikola Jokic, are at full strength and are vying for the top seed in the Western Conference alongside the Minnesota Timberwolves and Oklahoma City Thunder.
Jokic has been in outstanding form, scoring over 30 points in three of their last five games. The matchup between these two teams promises to be an exciting one, with the Nuggets looking to continue their winning ways and the Heat aiming to get back to winning form.
