Entirety Of Next Six Weeks Might Not Be Pretty, But Miami Heat Fine
Miami Heat: Entirety Of Next Six Weeks Might Not Be Pretty, But They’re Fine
With Giannis Antetokounmpo returning in Milwaukee’s last game, though not playing in an embarrassing defeat over the Heat last Saturday and with the Heat without Jimmy again for this one, that certainly makes for another tough out for the Miami Heat on Wednesday.
Heat injury update for Wednesday vs. Bucks:
— Ira Winderman (@IraHeatBeat) December 7, 2021
Jimmy Butler (tailbone) out
Markieff Morris (neck) out
Bam Adebayo (thumb) out
Victor Oladipo (knee) out
Marcus Garrett (G League) out
Caleb Martin (knee) questionable
Even deeper than that though and as alluded to again here by Winderman, the Miami Heat still won’t get Markieff Morris back on Wednesday, where he’s working on a month of missed time after the Nikola Jokic dustup in November.

Needless to say and without depth, never mind the raw talent, things will be challenging for the Heat. Here’s the kicker though.
They’ll still be fine.
The time without Bam Adebayo will hurt the most, without a doubt, as his absence seems to be the most lengthy. You could argue that Keef may end up missing as much or nearly as much time, which has had a great impact and will help a ton upon his return, but he’s not Bam for this Miami Heat team.
You also have the fact that you hope to get him back sooner than later and that’s along with Jimmy. While you can’t put a date or game on either of those, you assume that’ll be well before Bam does and for both of them, of course.
