Dragic out as Heat take on Pistons

Leon Halip / USA TODAY Sports

Goran Dragic did not play Tuesday when the Miami Heat host the Detroit Pistons.

Dragic has been dealing with a thumb injury for the past week, but has played through it. Prior to Tuesday's game, however, it was revealed the point guard also has a wrist issue. He warmed up in hopes of playing, but was ruled out 40 minutes prior to tipoff.

Dragic's production has dropped off in his first full season in Miami, and he's shooting under 44 percent from the field and below 26 percent from deep. His teammates have been pushing the 29-year-old Slovenian to be more aggressive lately.
