Miami Heat's Erik Spoelstra Give Update On Injury Status Of Tyler Herro

As expected, Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro has been ruled out against the Boston Celtics in Wednesday's Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals.

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Herro is still unable to do much with his injured hand.

"The good thing about a hand is you're able to do other things with that," Spoelstra said. "But he can't shoot. He can't dribble ... I don't have an update. He won't be playing Wednesday."

Herro has been out since breaking his hand in Game 1 of the first round against the Milwaukee Bucks. The hope is Herro can return if the Heat advance to the NBA Finals but they are monitoring his status on a daily basis.

Without Herro, the Heat have relied more heavily on forward Jimmy Butler and center Bam Adebayo.
