Underdog NBA: "Darius Garland (quad) now listed questionable Friday."
The former Vanderbilt star is in the middle of another fantastic season with averages of 22.0 points, 2.7 rebounds, 7.9 assists and 1.3 steals per contest in 58 games.
He is also shooting a tremendous 47.1% from the field and 43.0% from the three-point range.

They are currently 2.5 games back of the Philadelphia 76ers for the third seed.
As for the Heat, they are the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference with a 35-32 record in 67 games.
They are 3-7 in their last ten games but a very good 21-13 in the 34 games they have hosted at home in Miami, Florida.
The franchise has been to the Eastern Conference Finals in two out of the last three seasons.
