Wesley Matthews: (Knee) May Not Play Thursday
Matthews (knee) isn't sure whether he'll suit up Thursday against the Heat, The Columbian reports.
Analysis:
Matthews sustained a hyperextended left knee in Monday's win against the Lakers, but after a brief respite in the locker room, he returned to the game and managed to log 30 minutes of court time. However, he was seen donning a brace during Wednesday's practice, after which he relayed his questionable status heading into Thursday. His availability could come down to a game-time call, but an absence would likely result in Allen Crabbe entering the starting five.
