Malcolm Brogdon and Gabe Vincent are questionable for Game 6. Sounds like Brogdon is taking things day by day, getting treatment & #Celtics will take the best he can give them. – 5:14 PM

Gabe Vincent has hit 55.6 percent of his pull-up shots in the East finals, including 50 percent on three pull-up three-point attempts per game.
With both Tyler Herro and Vincent out tonight, the Heat needs more Kyle Lowry pull-ups in Game 5 to fill some of that production. – 2:27 PM

The Heat score an elite 1.19 points per Gabe Vincent’s 19.5 pick-and-rolls per game in the playoffs.
Points per P&R by series via @SecondSpectrum:
Bucks: 1.02
Knicks: 1.23
Celtics: 1.45
Without him, Jimmy Butler (31.1 P&R per game) and Kyle Lowry (17.2) should absorb touches.… pic.twitter.com/RmPA4L6lq4 – 2:21 PM

Gabe Vincent is doing all he can to try to play, will try to play if possible on the sprained ankle. Decision tomorrow. Lowry obviously the only other PG on roster, though Jimmy, Bam, Caleb can get Heat into offense. Not having Herro and Vic hurts in this & other ways, of course. – 4:47 PM

But if Vincent (sprained left ankle) can play in Game 6, it at least in theory would restore order to the method in which the Heat were operating when things were easier. “We’ll see, we’ll see who is available, see if Gabe is available. I can’t answer that right now,” said Spoelstra, when asked if he needed to make a permanent lineup change. “But it’s always good when a guy (Haywood) comes in and plays some productive minutes and sees some good things happen. But we’ll see.” -via The Athletic / May 26, 2023
