Josh McRoberts (knee) questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors
Updating a previous note, McRoberts (knee) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Raptors, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis:
The Heat were originally labeling McRoberts as out for Friday's contest on their injury report, but after reassessing things, Hassan Whiteside (hip) and Goran Dragic (calf) have been moved from questionable to out, while McRoberts now has a realistic chance of being available for the game. McRoberts, who has been out since Dec. 9 with a bone bruise on his right knee, would likely only be asked to play limited minutes if he ends up being deemed active Friday. Amar'e Stoudemire is expected to get the start at center in Whiteside's place.
