The Miami Heat could be without a valuable member of their bench for Sunday's Game 7 matchup against the Charlotte Hornets.

Josh Richardson is questionable to play with a left shoulder strain. Richardson underwent a MRI on Saturday, and could be required to wear a shoulder brace should he see the floor, The Vertical's Shams Charania reports.

Richardson sustained the injury in the dying seconds of Game 6, running hard into the Hornets' Cody Zeller on a screen.

The 22-year-old rookie is averaging 7.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.0 block in six postseason games.
