Lowry (COVID-19 protocols) will play Friday against the Rockets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran point guard was initially listed as out for Friday's contest against Houston but is now listed as available to play. His presence is beneficial for a very depleted Heat roster, as Lowry was only forced to miss two showings during his time in the league's protocols. Due to how shorthanded the Heat are, it wouldn't be surprising to see Lowry see extended usage during his return to the court.
