Heat's Bam Adebayo day-to-day with toe injury

Heat big man Bam Adebayo underwent an MRI on Thursday and has been diagnosed with a left big toe sprain, as Anthony Chiang and Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald relay.

While it’s obviously unfortunate that Adebayo was forced to leave Wednesday’s loss in Denver and will also be out for Friday’s game vs. Charlotte, it doesn’t sound like the three-time All-Star will miss much time beyond that — he’s considered day-to-day moving forward, per Chiang and Jackson.

With Adebayo sidelined, two-way center Vlad Goldin has been recalled from a G League assignment and will be active on Friday against the Hornets, tweets Tim Reynolds of The Associated Press. Another rookie, first-round pick Kasparas Jakucionis, will be available as well — it could mark the NBA debut of the former Illinois guard, who missed the first eight games of the season with a right groin strain.

The Heat also announced that Erik Spoelstra will coach Friday in the wake of the fire that severely damaged his home, Chiang and Jackson add. The league’s longest-tenured head coach will address the media before the game.
