MIAMI -- Max Strus expects to be sidelined for maybe just a couple weeks. Given how badly he initially feared his left knee was injured, that's a major win for the Miami Heat guard.
The Heat diagnosed Strus' injury as a sprain Monday, learning he did not sustain major structural damage. Strus got hurt in the final minutes of Miami's win at Memphis on Saturday night, landing awkwardly on a play where he tried to score at the rim.
He immediately left the game and went to the Heat locker room for further evaluation.
