MIAMI -- Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra says guard Dwyane Wade remains a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Wade sat out the Heat's win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday with a sore left knee.
"He's doing all the treatment he possibly can right now," Spoelstra said. "He feels better, but doesn't feel 100 percent. He's doing everything he can to play tonight."
Spoelstra said the pain isn't too serious, but they're exercising caution.
"There's certainly discomfort," Spoelstra said of Wade. "He's a tough guy. He plays through injuries and that's when we have to step in and gauge whether a bruise can be something more. Bruises are tricky."
Wade has missed 10 games this season and the Heat are 9-1 in those games. In Wade's absence on Tuesday, LeBron James tallied 41 points and six rebounds in a 99-93 win over Philadelphia.
The Heat (38-14) remain one game back in the loss column of Oklahoma City and the Chicago Bulls.
