Lowry (hamstring) is trending toward playing in Monday night's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Miami continues to push the limits of postseason injury reporting, but Lowry's hamstring issue is something that's bothered him throughout the playoffs. He missed a string of four straight games prior to Saturday's Game 3, which he started and finished with 11 points, six assists and four steals in 29 minutes. With Tyler Herro (groin) ruled out Monday, Lowry could be set for a larger workload.

EDGE Analysis

Lowry missed four straight playoff games before returning to the court for Game 3 on Saturday, and he produced 11 points (4-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, six assists and four steals in 29 minutes. The 36-year-old hasn't fully recovered from the hamstring strain, leaving his status in question for Game 4. Gabe Vincent (hamstring) started at the point during Lowry's absence but is also questionable for Monday.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Lowry will make his series debut after missing the past four playoff games with a persistent hamstring issue. Lowry has appeared in only five playoff games, averaging 6.2 points, 5.2 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.0 steals while shooting just 29.7 percent from the field. His return will send Gabe Vincent back to the bench.

Coach Erik Spoelstra said Lowry (hamstring) will warm up "with the intention to play" ahead of Saturday's Game 3 against Boston, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lowry missed the last four games due to his hamstring injury but traveled with the team to Boston ahead of Game 3. The 36-year-old is expected to take on a starting role if he's ultimately available, which would likely push Gabe Vincent (hamstring) to the bench. Over his first five playoff appearances this year, Lowry averaged 6.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 5.2 assists in 28.8 minutes per game.

EDGE Analysis

Lowry has missed Miami's last four games due to the hamstring issue, and while he did travel with the team to Boston ahead of Game 3, it's still unclear if he'll be available to take the court against the Celtics on Saturday. If he ultimately remains sidelined for Game 3, Gabe Vincent (hamstring) would likely draw another start in his place.

Lowry (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's Game 2 against the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

As anticipated, Lowry will remain out for at least one more contest as he continues to battle the sore left hamstring that's plagued him for much of the postseason. This will be Lowry's seventh missed game since the start of the playoffs and his third consecutive absence. Expect Gabe Vincent (hamstring) to make another start at point guard in the veteran's absence.

Lowry (hamstring) didn't practice Monday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lowry did manage to do some individual work on the side Monday according to head coach Erik Spoelstra, but after missing the last two days of practice, it appears he's unlikely to play in Tuesday's Game 1 against the Celtics. His official status for Tuesday will be clearer when Miami releases its official injury report, but for now it seems likely that he'll remain sidelined.
