Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier and forward Duncan Robinson have been ruled out of Sunday’s regular-season finale against the visiting Toronto Raptors.
Rozier (neck) has missed three games and Robinson (back) the past two for the Heat (45-36), who will need to defeat the Raptors on Sunday and receive some help in order to avoid competing in the play-in tournament. Miami, which currently occupies the eighth seed in the Eastern Conference, trails the Orlando Magic (46-35), Indiana Pacers (46-35) and Philadelphia 76ers (46-35) by one game.
Rozier, 30, is averaging 19.8 points, 5.6 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 61 games (60 starts) this season split between the Charlotte Hornets and Heat this season.
Robinson, 29, is contributing 12.9 points, 2.8 assists and 2.5 rebounds in 68 games (36 starts) this season.
