Heat Lose Mike Miller Indefinitely to Thumb Injury

Filed under: , ,

Mike MillerThe Miami Heat could be without Mike Miller for several weeks after the swingman suffered a fluke injury to his shooting hand. Miller's right hand became tangled in a teammate's jersey during practice Wednesday, causing injury to his thumb.

"It was just a drill," coach Erik Spoelstra told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "He got it caught in a jersey with some contact, on a post-up."

An exact diagnosis has not been revealed, but he was scheduled to visit a specialist and undergo an MRI on Thursday.

The Miami Heat have been no stranger to injury this preseason -- most notably, Dwyane Wade and LeBron James tweaking their hamstrings. But James has already returned to the lineup, and Wade was just cleared to resume full contact drills.
