Tim Reynolds @By Tim Reynolds

Heat say Victor Oladipo is now doubtful for tomorrow at MSG.
Orlando Robinson thinks the thumb fracture happened when Evan Mobley slapped a pass out of his hands in the third quarter. He will remain with Heat on the trip, for now. – 6:22 PM

Barry Jackson @flagsportsbuzz

Heat downgrades Oladipo to doubtful for Knicks game with ankle sprain. Orlando Robinson’s fractured thumb – expected to sideline him several weeks – happened last night in 3d qtr when entry pass to him was slapped out of his hands by Evan Mobley. – 6:22 PM

Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA

Wendell Carter Jr. (right foot, plantar fascia strain) will play and start tonight at Philadelphia, the Magic announced. He was listed as questionable to play. – 5:59 PM

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat

Heat center Orlando Robinson out with thumb fracture, depth scarce behind Bam Adebayo. sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-h… Heat’s few remaining options include a return to action by Dewayne Dedmon. – 4:37 PM

Barry Jackson @flagsportsbuzz

NEW: Fractured thumb sidelines Orlando Robinson, with Dedmon now needed to come out of mothballs. And from earlier: lots of stuff from Herro on All-Star Game, Durant, RJ Barrett, jersey retirement this week, more: miamiherald.com/sports/nba/mia… – 4:28 PM

Anthony Chiang @Anthony_Chiang

Heat backup center Orlando Robinson for tomorrow’s game vs. Knicks and probably beyond with right thumb fracture. Robinson has 10 NBA games left on his two-way contract. – 4:21 PM

Lauren Rosen @LaurenM Rosen

I need to know what @Tyrese Maxey is bad at.
Saddest part is – his first question was SPOT ON. πŸ₯ΉπŸ€£

#MIAvsNYK INJURY UPDATE: Orlando Robinson (right thumb fracture) has been ruled out of tomorrow night’s game vs the Knicks. – 4:13 PM
Barry Jackson @flagsportsbuzz

Heat has lost Orlando Robinson to a fractured thumb. So Dedmon might be needed for now. … Vincent and Oladipo questionable for Knicks game tomorrow with ankles. – 4:12 PM

Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat

Heat backup center Orlando Robinson is out with thumb fracture. So there yet could be Dewayne Dedmon time again. – 4:12 PM

Tim Reynolds @By Tim Reynolds

Heat announce Orlando Robinson has a fractured right thumb. – 4:12 PM

Dave Early @DavidEarly

Who is the best player the team could get if they bundled Shake, Niang, Matisse, Korkmaz and that Hornets pick all into one deal?

Khobi Price @khobi_price

Jonathan Isaac (left knee injury management) wont play tonight vs. 76ers, for Magic. – 3:26 PM

Cody Taylor @CodyTaylorNBA

Jonathan Isaac (left knee injury management) will not play tonight at Philadelphia, the Magic announced. He scored 2 points, 3 rebounds and 1 steal in 9:47 of action in Monday’s win over Philly. – 3:11 PM

Jason Dumas @JDumasReports

Source: The Sixers have no plans to make any major roster changes at the trade deadline. But they will be in the market for a backup PG, shooter, and a backup C that can play with or without Montrezl Harrell. – 2:29 PM

Gina Mizell @ginamizell

Georges Niang on if the lead-up to this year’s trade deadline feels different than last year, when the Ben Simmons saga hovered before finally getting resolved.
β€œDefinitely, if I’m being honest with you.”
