Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade is probably going to sit out during the Heat's Wednesday night game against the Milwaukee Bucks because of a bruised right thigh.
According to a report from the Associated Press, Wade sat out during the team's Wednesday morning practice, which prompted team coach Erik Spoelstra to say that it is "doubtful" Wade will play in tonight's game.
Wade received the injury on Sunday, when Travis Outlaw of the New Jersey Nets accidentally kneed him in the thigh. Wade was treated on Monday and Tuesday for the continuing soreness.
With an average of 25.7 points per game so far this season, Wade is currently the NBA's no. 3 scorer, so his absence from the team is likely to be felt.
