Miami has ruled out Rozier as he remains away from the team as he has not played for them at all this season.

Outside of Rozier, the rest of the Heat’s injury report is clean, which has been a rare sight for Miami this season.

Cavaliers Injury Report: Will Jarrett Allen, Max Strus Play?

On the other side, the Cavaliers have five players listed on their injury report, including both Jarrett Allen and Max Strus.

Cleveland has ruled out Allen due to right knee tendonitis as he will miss his 10th consecutive game.

With Allen still sidelined, Thomas Bryant and Keon Ellis could both continue to have larger roles.

The Cavaliers have also ruled out Strus due to left foot injury management as they will elect to sit him on the second night of their back-to-back.

Jaylon Tyson has also been ruled out due to a left great toe bone bruise while Craig Porter Jr. remains sidelined with a groin strain.

Larry Nance Jr. has been listed as questionable due to an illness and he is in danger of missing his second straight game.

Fans can catch Wednesday night’s matchup between the Heat and Cavaliers from Cleveland at 7:30 p.m. ET.
