Miami Heat’s Dedmon out a week with sprained left knee

Dewayne Dedmon

The Miami Heat announced Friday that center Dewayne Dedmon is expected to miss no more than two weeks with a sprained MCL in his left knee.

Dedmon suffered the injury Thursday in Miami’s win over Detroit.

Dedmon appeared to injure the knee as he planted for a shot near the rim early in Thursday’s game. He tumbled to the floor in pain, before limping off. Tests Friday confirmed the initial diagnosis of a sprain.
