Turner (strep throat) was cleared to play in Tuesday's Game 2 but he ultimately never left the bench.

Analysis:

Turner hasn't seen any action over the Pacers' past two games and it's possible that he might not see too many minutes throughout the Heat series, if any. Coach Frank Vogel made the decision to leave Turner on the bench in Game 2 which doesn't bode well for him playing much in the future. It appears that Turner has recovered from his spat of illness and the decision for his benching was more strategic than preventative.
