The Miami Heat were apparently missing a pair of starters in center Bam Adebayo and shooting guard Kendrick Nunn at the team's workout in the NBA's Orlando bubble Friday.

"Hopefully, Bam can come and K-Nunn, and we can be a whole team and make some damage," veteran guard Goran Dragic said Friday, according to the South Florida Sun Sentinel's Ira Winderman.

In addition to Derrick Jones Jr., the Heat had two players test positive for COVID-19 before they traveled to the league's bubble. The team did not reveal the identities of the players in question, and coach Erik Spoelstra did not say who was with the club for Friday's practice.

Adebayo, a 2020 All-Star selection, has started all 65 of his appearances this season, averaging 16.2 points, 10.5 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.3 blocks, and 1.2 steals per game.

Nunn has started all 62 of his outings this season. The undrafted rookie has put up 15.6 points, 3.4 assists, and 2.7 rebounds per game while shooting 36.2% from beyond the arc.
