The Miami Heat were only able to use eight players in their last matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers due to COVID contact tracing guidelines. On Monday the Heat released an injury report that had Bam Adebayo, Jimmy Butler, Avery Bradley, Goran Dragic, Moe Harkless, Udonis Haslem, Kendrick Nunn and KZ Okpala all listed as out. That left them with eight players, two of which were undrafted and have only a handful of professional games under their belts.
The 76ers won on Tuesday evening, 137-134, in a game that went to overtime and was ultimately dominated by Joel Embiid.
