Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro’s hustle appeared to have cost him big time in the second quarter of the team’s Game 1 playoff matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday.

In the second quarter, Herro poked the ball away from Bucks ball handler Grayson Allen. The ball rolled to the backcourt and Herro dove for it. However, he landed awkwardly, writhing in pain.

He tried to get off the court, but play was never paused as officials let the time wind down. He even tried to take a three-pointer as he was dealing with the issue. Miami went to the locker room with a 68-55 lead, but the team announced bad news at halftime.

Herro had suffered a broken hand. He would be ruled out for the rest of the game.

He had 12 points in 19 minutes.

The young guard was a big reason why Miami made it to the NBA Finals during the 2019-2020 COVID-19 pandemic-impacted season and also why the team made it to the Eastern Conference Finals against the Boston Celtics last season.

The 2022 NBA Sixth Man of the Year started in 67 games for Miami this season. He averaged 20.1 points, 5.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists during the season as the Heat limped into the playoffs as the No. 8 seed.

Herro was among the leaders in free-throw percentage with 93.4%.

Milwaukee was also hit with the injury bug when Giannis Antetokounmpo went down with a lower-back injury. He was ruled out as well.

Memphis Grizzlies star point guard Ja Morant rushed to the locker room after suffering what appeared to be a right hand injury during Game 1 of the first-round playoff series against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. 

Morant went for a highlight-reel dunk on Lakers forward Anthony Davis, who instead took a charge in the paint. Morant, who got way up in the air before committing the foul, puts his hands out to brace his fall, but it didn’t go according to plan. 

Slow-motion video of the fall showed Morant’s fingers collapsing back as he hit the hardwood, and his face said it all.

Morant initially lay in pain on the court before popping up and running back to the locker room. He could be heard in pain over the broadcast.

Morant returned to the Grizzlies’ bench with black tape wrapped around his hand.

Morant, who had 18 points prior to leaving the game, dealt with a right-hand injury that he suffered on April 7 against the Milwaukee Bucks. He’d return to that game, and head coach Taylor Jenkins said X-rays were negative.

However, Morant was wearing what appeared to be white tape on his right hand during the game.

Memphis is obviously holding its breath as the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference wants its leading scorer on the court. Morant averaged 26.2 points during the regular season.

The Grizzlies ended up losing Game 1 to the Lakers, 128-112, as Los Angeles pulled away late in the fourth quarter.

The series will continue from Memphis on Wednesday, with Game 2 tipping off at 7:30 p.m. ET.
