The Miami Heat (40-33) travel to the Washington Wizards (14-60). These are two teams that continue to deal with injuries. However, the Heat are more adaptable and able to deal with players who are missing. Conversely, the Wizards more or less need everyone to be fully healthy to even hope to compete on a nightly basis.
But where are the injuries to monitor for this game?
Miami Heat vs Washington Wizards Injuries
Miami Heat
| Player | Injury | Status |
| Tyler Herro | Foot | Out |
| Duncan Robinson | Back | GTD |
| Caleb Martin | Ankle | Out |
| Nikola Jovic | Knee | GTD |
| Josh Richardson | Shoulder | OFS |
The Heat are looking to get Duncan Robinson back in the rotation. Additionally, having Nikola Jovic out there for depth will help. Therefore, even if these two players aren’t able to fully go today, keeping them close to approaching the court again is vital. Playing against the Washington Wizards, however, it’s not, so don’t be surprised if the Miami Heat choose to exercise caution.

Washington Wizards
| Player | Injury | Status |
| Kyle Kuzma | Heel | GTD |
| Landry Shamet | Calf | Out |
| Tyus Jones | Back | Out |
| Eugene Omoruyi | Ankle | Out |
| Richaun Holmes | Toe | GTD |
| Bilal Coulibaly | Wrist | OFS |
| Isaiah Livers | Hip | OFS |
The Washington Wizards would likely struggle regardless of who’s in or out of the lineup. They were on a brief winning streak, but their lack of overall talent would eventually catch up to them again. However, for this game, the main person to watch is Kyle Kuzma. Additionally, Tyus Jones is someone to look for in future games to give a potential boost. However, against the Miami Heat, this already bad side will be shorthanded.

Miami Heat Facing A Bad Washington Wizards Side
The Washington Wizards are quickly hoping for some lottery luck and the beginning of next year. In terms of holding out for injury updates, even if everyone on this roster is currently available, things are more likely to get ugly before they get better. Before taking action on this game, if you want to pick against the spread, then the side to monitor is that of the Miami Heat.
