Miami’s injuries are piling up.

Miami is the team with the biggest upset of this playoff stage. After barely punching their ticket to the playoffs through the play-in tournament, they’ve made it all the way to the Finals, laughing off early exit predictions. This is only the second time a No. 8 seed has reached the Finals since New York in 1999.

The Heat battled Boston to a close Game 7 in the Conference Finals. While the Heat punched their ticket to the Finals, the aftermath of the hard-fought series is still evident.

Tyler Hiro, who suffered a fractured finger during the first-round series against Milwaukee, is still out. He was expected to be out for the season, but the team’s run to the Finals has opened the door for him to return. He is expected to return for Game 3 and will likely miss Game 2.

Also, Caleb Martin, who was a big part of Miami’s run to the Finals, is questionable for Game 2 due to an illness. Martin reportedly did not participate in the team’s recent practice. He’s averaging 13.5 points and 5.6 rebounds in the playoffs, so he’s a must for Miami. Add to that the fact that Cody Zeller, who serves as the backup center, is also questionable for Game 2 due to a sore foot.메이저사이트

Miami punched its ticket to the Finals by pulling off a near-miracle. However, the Heat have been playing so hard that their injuries have been mounting. After dropping Game 1 93-104, can the Heat pull off another upset against the odds? Game 2 between Miami and Denver will take place on April 5.
