Cole played 25 minutes Tuesday in relief of Dwyane Wade, who left the game early after straining his hamstring, but went just 3-for-7 from the floor for seven points. Cole and Mario Chalmers got the majority of the work in the backcourt with Wade out. Even if Wade misses some time and Cole starts, he's not a great option. In 23 starts this season, Cole averaged 7.0 points, 2.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.1 steals per game.
