    The Miami Heat host the Los Angeles Clippers at Kesya Center in Miami Monday night.

    The Los Angeles Clippers travel to sunny Miami to face off against the Miami Heat Monday night. The Clippers are in the midst of a four game losing streak while the Heat are recovering from a loss to the Detroit Pistons on Nov. 29.

    The Clippers have had to deal with several long-term injuries this season, and Monday will be no exception. There aren't any newcomers to the injured list for the Clippers, but the names that are there have been long term residents and will likely continue to be.

    The Heat have a long list of injuries on their side going up against the Clippers, but they don't have any definitive absences. Still, Miami is playing it safe and have activated a long list of two-way players from the G-League that will be available to step in against Los Angeles.

    Clippers Injury Report

    Bradley Beal (hip) is OUT for the season with a left hip fracture. The unfortunate injury is something that Clippers fans have now had time to get used to, but the continued absence of their major offseason pick up is still something that stings game the Clippers play without him.

    Bigdan Bogdanović (hip) is OUT for Monday's game with a left hip contusion. This will be the sixth game that Bogdanović will miss with his hip issue. There have been no concrete updates on when

    the Clippers' guard will be able to return.

    Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) is OUT with a right MCL sprain. Monday will be the eighth game that Jones Jr. will miss in a row, and his earliest return to the court is still weeks away.

    Jahmyl Telfort (two-way) is OUT for Monday's game as he is signed to a two-way contract and playing with the San Diego Clippers of the G-League.

    Heat Injury Report

    Tyler Herro (ankle) is AVAILABLE for Monday's game, his fourth game back since having ankle surgery in the offseason. Herro is averaging 25.7 points per game since returning.

    Jaime Jaquez Jr. (groin) is QUESTIONABLE to play Monday due to a right groin strain. Jaquez Jr. missed the Heat's last game on Nov. 29 for the same injury.

    Nikola Jovic (hip) is AVAILABLE for Monday's game. Miami has been careful to manage Jovic's load since his return from a hip impingement injury that kept him sidelined for five games in mid November, but he's been given the green light to participate Monday.

    Keshad Johnson (head, illness) is QUESTIONABLE to play Monday due to the one-two punch of a head injury and illness.

    Norman Powell (groin) is AVAILABLE to play against the Clippers despite a nagging left groin strain.

    Andrew Wiggins (hip) is AVAILABLE to play Monday even though he's been dealing with a left hip flexor strain.
