Richardson added that Chalmers will receive treatment on the injury at least through the rest of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Heat point guard initially injured the shoulder during Miami’s Game 1 victory and missed most of the second half.
Chalmers played well in Game 3 despite the pain, scoring 14 points on 4-of-6 shooting. The Heat rebounded from a Game 2 home loss to pound the Pacers in Indianapolis, 114-96. All five starters scored in double figures as Miami was able to pick up the pace of the game.
Game 4 is scheduled for Tuesday at 8:30 p.m. ET and can be seen on TNT.
