Ruled out for Game 3Herro (hand) has been ruled out for Game 3 of the NBA Finals versus Denver on Wednesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Advice: There was speculation that Herro could return for either Game 2 or 3, but he's experienced soreness and swelling in his surgically repaired hand that delayed his return timeline. The shooting guard has been fully participating in Miami's recent practices, but it remains to be seen if he'll be cleared for game action at any point in the series. Rotowire.com -
Spoelstra: Tyler Herro "has not been cleared yet"Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra tells reporters Tuesday that Tyler Herro (fractured right hand) has not been cleared yet for a return.
Advice: The Tyler Herro return for Game 3 storyline may prove to be just a pipe dream as Erik Spoelstra all but killed any notion of the young guard returning for Wednesday's contest. Spoelstra added that the team will put him through a contact workout to see where he's at in his recovery process. The Heat are taking a cautious approach and don't seem to be rushing Herro's return, especially with them having wrestled home-court advantage away from the Nuggets. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Dwight Howard: "I'm not retired from the NBA yet"Dwight Howard isn't ruling out a return to the NBA and wants to win a title with the Kings, according to Mark Haynes of The Observer.
Advice: Could Superman don his cape for one last ride? In a recent interview Dwight Howard said, "I'm not retired from the NBA just yet" and added that he "would love to help the Sacramento Kings contend for a title". Howard, whose career accomplishments include eight All-NBA selections, five All-Defense selections and three DPOY awards, last played in the NBA during the 2021-22 season as a member of the Lakers.

Will do full-contact drills TuesdayHerro (hand) remains day-to-day and hasn't been cleared for game action yet, but Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra said the shooting guard will go through another full-contact workout Tuesday, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.
Advice: Herro has been participating in all portions of Miami's practices recently, but he was still experiencing soreness and swelling in his surgically repaired right hand as of Monday. There's been conflicting reports surrounding his potential availability since the Finals began, but there hasn't been anything definitive saying he's close to being cleared for game action. The Heat will have to release their initial injury report for Game 3 sometime Tuesday afternoon, but Herro's official availability presumably won't be known until a few hours ahead of Wednesday's 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

Report: Lakers not interested in adding KyrieThe Lakers are not interested in adding Kyrie Irving in free agency, per The Athletic's Jovan Buha.
Advice: On the same day that a report surfaced suggesting that Kyrie had reached out to LeBron James about joining Dallas, the Lakers made it clear that they weren't going to bring Irving to them. If the duo want to reunite to chase a championship, it would likely be in Dallas, though that wouldn't be realistic. LeBron has one more year on his contract, so the Mavs would have to trade for him, and it's unlikely that the Lakers would accept any offer that Dallas can make. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Report: Tyler Herro still experiencing sorenessTyler Herro (fractured right hand) is still experiencing soreness and swelling in the right hand according to Ros Gold-Onwude of ESPN.
Advice: Despite the optimism of Herro returning in any capacity for these NBA Finals, it still seems he may have a ways to go. Ros Gold-Onwude reported Monday that she spoke with Herro prior to Game 2 and he said he can still feel soreness when making a "follow through" shooting motion. The hope was for Herro to return by Game 3 however a more cautious approach seems to be what he and the Heat are taking. Game 3 is on Wednesday. NBCSportsEDGE.com -
Shams: Kyrie attempts to recruit LeBron to DallasKyrie Irving has reached out to LeBron James in an attempt to see if James would come to Dallas, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Advice: Just like in his movie, looks like Uncle Drew is trying to get the gang back together for one last hoorah. It's been 6 seasons since Kyrie and LeBron have shared the floor as teammates and their journeys during that span of time have certainly been different. Irving is a free agent this offseason while LeBron is still signed to the Lakers for the 2023-24 season with a player option the following year. LeBron has also vocalized about being unsure if he would come back to play next season as well. This bodes well for Dallas' hopes of re-signing Kyrie as it appears Irving is in it for the long haul if he's trying to recruit players. Time will tell though. NBCSportsEDGE.com
