Miami Heat fans feared the worst when Bam Adebayo was limping off the court due to a toe injury against the Denver Nuggets in Wednesday’s 122-112 loss, which required an MRI the following morning. Adebayo’s foot landed awkwardly while trying to go through a screen from Nuggets forward Cam Johnson.

The Heat announced Adebayo suffered a sprained toe and will miss Miami’s next game, the team reported on its X, formerly Twitter.

“An MRI has revealed that Bam Adebayo has a left big toe sprain. He has been ruled out of tomorrow night’s game vs. Charlotte,” the Heat reported.

Adebayo left the game with two points and one rebound in eight first-quarter minutes. The Heat fell to 4-4 on the season. Without Adebayo, Miami will look to return to the winning column against the Charlotte Hornets
