Chris Bosh Fails Pre-Season Physical; No Timetable Set for His Return

Phil Ellsworth / ESPN Images(MIAMI) — Bad news for Miami Heat fans: It doesn’t look like Chris Bosh will be returning to the court anytime soon.

The team announced on Friday that the power forward failed his pre-season physical and said “there is no timetable for his return.”

“The Miami HEAT and Chris Bosh, in consultation with team doctors and other physicians, have been working together for many months with the mutual goal of having Chris return to the court as soon as possible,” the Heat said in a statement. “Chris has now taken his pre-season physical. The Miami HEAT regret that it remains unable to clear Chris to return to basketball activities, and there is no timetable for his return.”

Bosh, 32, has been plagued by blood clots.

The team did not offer any further details on his condition, saying: “We are not able to comment further in light of Article XXII, Section 3(e) of the NBA Collective Bargaining Agreement, which precludes a team from releasing certain medical information without a player’s consent.”
