4 years agoMiami Heat point guard Goran Dragic (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Rockets due to an ankle sprain. Dragic did not travel with the team to kick-off their road trip, which certainly doesn't bode well for an imminent return. Kendrick Nunn is in line to continue to see an increased workload without Dragic available, earning the second-year guard considerable short-term intrigue in nearly all-sized season-long formats. The role of bench ace out of the backcourt appears to have shifted to Tyler Herro, who also stands to benefit statistically from Dragic's absence. The next chance he has at suiting up comes Saturday against Utah.--Jesse Borek
