Add Dwyane Wade to the list of injured superstars in Miami. With LeBron James (ankle) and Chris Bosh (ankle) both dealing with injuries, Wade was the teams' last-best hope for victory on Tuesday night. That was before he suffered a minor knee injury on Saturday against the Bulls. Monday afternoon, Wade, James and Bosh all missed practice for the Heat, according to ESPN.
Bosh, who injured his ankle on Saturday is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Hawks. I would look at Joel Anthony as an option for picking up blocks. He's limited offensively, but he has bulk-blocks and so-so rebounding in his repertoire. Add Anthony where needed, but I have a feeling you're going to need to bench Bosh.
LeBron has been listed as questionable with a rolled ankle. Again, in a meaningless regular season game in mid-January, they're not going to push him to play. I have to think, though, that he wants to get back out there and play. It's not a guarantee, but I suspect we'll see LeBron play. If he does miss, however, James Jones makes for a decent flier, with 3-point shooting being his best asset.
