Deng to miss second straight game for Heat
Chris Humphreys-USA TODAY Sports
Miami Heat small forward Luol Deng will sit out his second straight game Friday with a calf injury, the first time he will miss back-to-back games this season.
Deng joins Dwyane Wade on the inactive list for Miami, taking two of the Heat's top three scorers out of action.
At least coach Erik Spoelstra appears to have a sense of humor about the Heat's challenges with injuries this season.
Erik Spoelstra: "I'm intellectually stimulated with this team & the frustrations we've had & trying to figure it out."
