Tyler Herro, Davion Mitchell Remain Out Thursday
Miami Heat guards Tyler Herro (ribs) and Davion Mitchell (shoulder) won't be in action against the Chicago Bulls on Thursday. Due to a rib issue, Herro will sit out an eighth consecutive game, while Mitchell must skip his fifth straight contest with a shoulder injury. As a result of the backcourt injuries, Kasparas Jakucionis has recently filled in as the starting point guard. After initially showing promise, the rookie struggled in Wednesday's loss to the Orlando Magic, registering two points, one assist, two steals, and two turnovers in 20 minutes. Dru Smith outperformed Jakucionis off the bench with 13 points, three rebounds, and seven assists in 22 minutes, potentially earning himself a larger role for Thursday's game.
