MIAMI – The waiting game on the Miami Heat moving closer to whole continues.
Listed out for Wednesday night’s rematch against the Charlotte Hornets are center Bam Adebayo, shooting guard Tyler Herro and power forward Haywood Highsmith, again leaving the Heat without three starters.
Adebayo will miss his fifth consecutive game due to a left-hip contusion initially sustained on Oct. 30.
Adebayo had traveled with the team for Monday night’s victory in Charlotte.
“He wanted to be around the guys. He’s making progress,” coach Erik Spoelstra said.
