MIAMI (AP)—Michael Beasley’s first official practice with the Miami Heat ended
quickly.
Beasley was struck in the chest by an inadvertent elbow during a defensive
drill about 45 minutes into Miami’s first summer-league workout session
Wednesday, and the No. 2 overall pick in last week’s NBA draft was taken to a
doctor for observation.
Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said the move was strictly precautionary and
should not affect Beasley’s availability for Miami’s five-games-in-five-days run
through the Orlando summer league, which opens Monday.
“He took a shot to the chest,” Spoelstra said. “He probably could have
finished if it was the regular season or something like that, but we just wanted
to be safe.”
Hehe..."Mommy"
