Zach Zarba, Eric Lewis and Courtney Kirkland the refs tonight for Heat at Celtics. Ed Malloy alternate.
On the Tyler Herro front, I’d be really surprised if he plays. Unsure when Heat will make the final call there; shootaround starts later this morning.
Celtics favored by 9. – 9:21 AM

More on this storyline
Herro, 22, participated in parts of shootaround Friday morning, but he experienced some discomfort while sliding defensively, sources said. The Heat and Herro do not want to put his health at risk, particularly if he steps on the court prematurely and suffers a long-term injury that could require offseason surgery. -via Yahoo!

“I’m told barring a setback Tyler Herro will be playing tonight.” @ShamsCharania -via Twitter / May 27, 2022
Ira Winderman: Spoelstra basically says ignore injury list, that those who played Wednesday he expects to play Friday. With Herro, who has missed last two with groin strain, he was less committal. Declined to say why Butler is not on injury report (as he seems to be ailing). -via Twitter @IraHeatBeat / May 26, 2022
