Heat's Wayne Ellington: Progressing in rehab

Ellington (thigh) has progressed to running in the pool and taking set shots on the court, but remains without a concrete timetable for a return, Anthony Chiang of the Palm Beach Post reports. "They just keep telling me that I just got to continue to progress and get better. They will let me know when they feel like it's time for me to get on the court," Ellington said.

Analysis:

Ellington has yet to be cleared for on-court running, which appears to be the next step in his recovery. The coaching staff plans to bring him along slowly and Ellington did acknowledge he's still dealing with some pain in his leg, so it could be several weeks before Ellington makes a return to the court.
