Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo exited Game 1 of the NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday with a left shoulder strain. X-rays were negative, according to the team.

Adebayo appeared to suffer the injury while going for a rebound in the third quarter and headed to the locker room shortly after.

The Heat later ruled him out of the game, along with Goran Dragic. The point guard suffered a left foot injury during the game and underwent an x-ray late in the contest, sources told Yahoo's Chris Haynes.

After the Heat's 116-98 loss, coach Erik Spoelstra said the team would re-evaluate both players Thursday.
