BOSTON (AP) -- Miami coach Erik Spoelstra says Chris Bosh will not play for the Heat in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Boston Celtics.
Bosh will miss his ninth straight game Sunday with a lower abdominal strain. Spoelstra says that Bosh's status is "still indefinite."
The Heat lost their All-Star forward in Game 1 of the second-round series against Indiana. Without him, the Celtics have been double-teaming Dwyane Wade and won Game 3 to cut the Heat's lead to 2-1.
