Dwyane Wade to sit out tonight against San Antonio Spurs
Jesse Johnson-US PRESSWIRE

Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade will sit out tonight against the San Antonio Spurs with several leg injuries.

Wade missed the last two practices with a sprained ankle he injured in Friday night’s loss against the Denver Nuggets. He has already been plagued with a sore left foot that has forced him to miss a few games this season as well as a calf strain that took place last week.

Heat officials have not given an exact date to when they expect Wade to return to the lineup but with injuries building up rapidly it could be some time before he sees the court again.

Mike Miller will be active for tonight’s game for the first time this season which will help with Wade being out. James Jones will most likely make the start at shooting guard tonight.

In nine games played this season, Wade has 19.6 points, 5.4 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 2.0 steals per game.
