Heat's Luol Deng: Will warm up, try to play Friday

Deng (wrist) will go through warmups Friday, and the team is hopeful that he'll be able to take to floor for Game 6 against the Raptors, Mike Mazzeo of ESPN.com reports.

Analysis:

The veteran wing left Wednesday's Game 5 loss with what was ultimately diagnosed as a bruised left wrist. Deng went through morning shootaround Friday, and the fact that he's been cleared to warm up suggests that he'll ultimately be able to take the court. Further confirmation on Deng's status will be made available prior to Friday's tip off.
