Chris Bosh is expected to rejoin the Miami Heat lineup on Monday against the Orlando Magic, head coach Erik Spoelstra said Monday morning.

Bosh, who has missed the last eight games with a left calf strain, took part in practice on Sunday and in shootaround on Monday.

Bosh is averaging 21.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 23 games for the 14-17 Heat, who are performing 1.4 points per 100 possessions better with Bosh on the court than on the bench.

With LeBron James back in Cleveland, Bosh has taken on a primary role in the Heat offense, posting his highest usage rate, scoring average, rebound rate and Player Efficiency Rating in five years.
