Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro, Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart to sit out Game 4 of Eastern Conference finals

BOSTON -- Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart and Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro are both out for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals on Monday.

Smart is out with a right ankle sprain while Herro is dealing with a left groin strain. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said that Herro would be "day-to-day" moving forward.

"We just had to be responsible and take the decision out of his hands," Spoelstra said. "He really wants to be out there tonight. The trainers and Dr. [Harlan] Selesnick don't think that's the best idea just because of the intensity and everything, but we'll see.
