Injury Update for Milwaukee Bucks at Miami Heat: Who Is Out and Who Is Questionable

If there are health questions for each team, coaches often shorten the leash by feel, and the fourth-quarter mix can be different from the opening unit. I prefer the group with a steady pecking order, because the margin gets thin when replacement minutes stack up. For a broader postseason snapshot, see NBA championship odds.
