Just three days ago, Swedish basketball star Pelle Larsson made a comeback for the Miami Heat after a five-game absence due to a sprained left foot, scoring a career-high 21 points in his second NBA season. He also had 16 points against Indiana the following day.
At home against Denver, he played just 15 minutes and scored three points. Larsson was then forced to leave the game after stepping awkwardly on his right foot.
Miami won the game against Denver 147–123 after the Nuggets also had a player injured. Superstar Nikola Jokić injured his knee.
Corrected: In a previous version, the length of time Pelle Larsson has played in the NBA was incorrectly stated. He is in his second season.
