Listed as questionable again Strus (hamstring) is questionable for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics on Monday.
Impact Strus continues to be listed as questionable but hasn't missed a game during the playoffs. Across 14 postseason contests, the undrafted wing out of DePaul has averaged 12.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 29.9 minutes per game.

Back on injury report for Game 4 Lowry (hamstring) is questionable for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics on Monday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Lowry missed four straight playoff games before returning to the court for Game 3 on Saturday, and he produced 11 points (4-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, six assists and four steals in 29 minutes. The 36-year-old hasn't fully recovered from the hamstring strain, leaving his status in question for Game 4. Gabe Vincent (hamstring) started at the point during Lowry's absence but is also questionable for Monday.

Lands on injury report yet again Vincent (hamstring) is questionable for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics on Monday.
Impact Vincent continues to be listed as questionable due to a hamstring injury, but he's yet to miss a game this postseason. While it's safe to say Vincent will likely be available, it's unclear what his role will be in Game 4 with Kyle Lowry's (hamstring) status up in the air once again.
MAY 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Game 4 Herro (groin) is questionable for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics on Monday.
Impact Herro suffered what was initially reported as a quadriceps injury during Game 3 and was benched in favor of Victor Oladipo during the fourth quarter. Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra said after the game that the medical staff didn't rule Herro out completely, but he still opted to roll with Oladipo simply because he was playing better, per Nick Friedell of ESPN.com. It doesn't sound like the groin issue is too serious, but the Heat will likely still wait until the last second to make a definitive statement on Herro's status for Game 4.
MAY 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Monday Tucker is questionable for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals at Boston on Monday due to left knee irritation, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact The veteran forward played through the injury during Game 3 on Saturday and put up 17 points (5-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, three steals and one block in 38 minutes. Given that performance, Tucker seems likely to be available for Monday's contest.
MAY 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Game 4 Butler (knee) is listed as questionable for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics on Monday.
Impact Butler was sidelined for the second half of Game 3 due to inflammation in his right knee. The issue isn't expected to be serious, and there's a strong possibility the All-Star forward is available for Game 4, per Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports. However, his availability will likely come down to a game-time decision Monday.

Drains four threes in win Strus accumulated 16 points (6-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block across 34 minutes during Saturday's 109-103 win over the Celtics in Game 3 of the Eastern C...
Impact Strus has been a bit inconsistent with his scoring figures in recent games, but he continues to make an impact on offense and particularly from three-point range. He has made at least two treys in each of his last eight appearances, a span in which he's averaging 12.0 points per game while shooting 39.1 percent from deep.

Shines against Celtics Adebayo accumulated 31 points (15-22 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), 10 rebounds, six assists, one block and four steals in 42 minutes during Saturday's 109-103 victory over the Celtics in G...
Impact Jimmy Butler suffered a knee injury and Tyler Herro is dealing with a quad problem, so Adebayo had to embrace a bigger load on offense and that's exactly what happened. The star big man was massive on both ends of the court and carried the team when they needed it the most as Miami now holds a 2-1 lead in the series. Adebayo has now scored in double digits in five of his last six contests, but this was the first time in the current postseason run in which he surpassed the 25-point mark.

Impact Tucker registered his best scoring output of the entire playoff run and did it in a game where the Heat needed all the help they could get following Jimmy Butler's knee injury. Tucker's contributions often go beyond the box score, but there's no question he'd become an even more valuable player if he can put up these numbers on a regular basis. For what it's worth, he has scored in double digits in three of his last five appearances.
