Heat list Whiteside, Wade as out Monday against Nuggets

The Miami Heat are listing Dwyane Wade and Hassan Whiteside as out for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets at AmericanAirlines Arena.

Whiteside has missed the past four games with what the team is listing as "left hip pain." He was injured during the March 10 morning shootaround before the Heat's home victory over the Washington Wizards.

Wade has missed the past three games with what the Heat are listing as a "left hamstring strain." He was injured during the home victory over the Wizards.

Forward Josh Richardson is off the team's injury report after missing Wednesday's overtime loss to the Sacramento Kings with a sore left foot but then returning to start in Friday's victory over the Los Angeles Lakers.

Rookie center Bam Adebayo has been starting in place of Whiteside, with second-year swingman Rodney McGruder getting rotation minutes in the absence of Wade.

The Heat remain without guard Dion Waiters, who underwent season-ending ankle surgery in January, and also are without guards Derrick Walton Jr. and Derrick Jones Jr., who are with the Heat's developmental-league affiliate, the G League Sioux Falls Skyforce, on their two-way contracts.

The game against the Nuggets opens two-game homestand that concludes Wednesday against the New York Knicks.
