Heat rule out Gabe Vincent with sprained ankle ahead of Game 5

After rolling his ankle in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Gabe Vincent has been ruled out of Game 5 for the Miami Heat against the Boston Celtics. Boston head into Thursday’s contest with their backs against the wall down 3-1 and one win away from elimination.

The news that Vincent will not be part of Miami’s rotation will likely be treated with cautious optimism among Celtics fans. Throughout the first four games, Vincent has been playing exceptional basketball, averaging 17.5 points while knocking down 50% of his perimeter shots on 5.
