Miami Heat's Kyle Lowry Listed As Out For Monday Against Minnesota Timberwolves
Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry will not play in Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Heat are listing Lowry as out because of soreness. The positive is they received good news on other injury fronts. The Heat are welcoming back Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro, who have both been sidelined.
Here's a look at what to expect:
The Miami Heat (15-11) are kicking off their week with a matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves (19-5).
Heat star Jimmy Butler sealed off Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls with a buzzer-beater for the win. Meanwhile, Minnesota took down the Indiana Pacers and Dallas Mavericks in their latest contests.
Herro is set to make his return following an injury sustained early in the season against the Memphis Grizzlies. Before the injury, he was averaging 22.3 points, 4.6 assists, and 1.4 steals. Herro appeared on his way to an All-Star selection.
Adebayo, an All-Star, is also re-entering the lineup after dealing with a hip contusion. Adebayo has dealt with this injury on multiple occasions this year but is coming back just in time to face Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert.
This is immaculate timing for the duo's return because of the Timberwolves dominant start to the season.
