Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro has been ruled out of Thursday's 2023 NBA Finals rematch against the Nuggets in Denver due to a left knee injury.

Herro is not alone for the undermanned Heat, who will be without center Thomas Bryant (league suspension), forward Kevin Love (right heel) and guard Josh Richardson (right shoulder) among others.

Herro, 24, is averaging 20.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.4 assists in 36 games (all starts) this season for Miami.

Center Orlando Robinson is listed as available to play for the Heat while dealing with a lower back injury.
