The Miami Heat will have to adjust to playing without their star player, Jimmy Butler, in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series against the New York Knicks. Butler rolled his ankle during the fourth quarter of Game 1 but managed to finish the game with team highs of 25 points and 11 rebounds. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra is uncertain about the extent of the injury, leaving Heat fans anxious about their chances of winning Game 2.

The Heat will lean on Kevin Love, Bam Adebayo, Max Strus, and Gabe Vincent in the starting lineup with Caleb Martin replacing Butler. Miami has tough competition against the Knicks, who dominated the regular season series with a 3-1 record, with each game being decided by single digits. New York's star forward, Julius Randle, is also dealing with a sprained ankle, which interfered with his starting the game in Game 1.

It remains to be seen how both teams' injuries will affect the outcome of Game 2, but fans will witness the Heat's resilience in a crucial game in which a win will give the team an advantage in the series.
