The Miami Heat and Denver Nuggets will square off in Game 3 of the 2023 NBA Finals on Wednesday night as the series shifts to Miami. The Heat evened up the series after outlasting the Denver Nuggets in a 111-108 win in Game 2 on Sunday. The Nuggets led for most of the game, but the Heat used a 36-25 fourth quarter to come away with a win and head back to Miami with some momentum.

Porter supplied five points (2-8 FG, 1-6 3Pt) and six rebounds over 26 minutes during Sunday's 111-108 loss to the Heat in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. Although Porter was one of the heroes in Denver's Game 1 win, he was unable to get many shots to fall Sunday. Porter's five points matched his second-worst scoring total of the season, and although Nikola Jokic posted a huge 41-point total to pick up the slack, the Porter's production was sorely missed.

Nuggets' Michael Porter: Massive regression in loss

Denver Nuggets coach Michael Malone wasn't happy with his team's effort during a 111-108 loss to the Miami Heat in Game 2 of the 2023 NBA Finals on Sunday night. Malone didn't think his team came out with the requisite energy, and he expressed his frustration publicly after the game.

Cincinnati, OH

The Reds placed Friedl on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a strained left hamstring, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. Friedl hasn't played since being removed from Tuesday's game against Boston. He's already begun doing field work alongside a bit of running, so he shouldn't require much more than a minimum stint on the IL, but that still means Friedl will be held out for another week or so. The 27-year-old outfielder is currently slashing .326/.377/.496 with 20 RBI through 158 plate appearances.

Philadelphia, PA

PHILADELPHIA -- Throughout the process of learning right guard last season, Cam Jurgens had the benefit of shadowing Isaac Seumalo as he was getting accustomed to a new position. The Philadelphia Eagles had Jason Kelce at center, so Jurgens took right guard reps in training camp in order for more position versatility.

Seattle, WA

Ford, called up from Triple-A Tacoma earlier in the day, went 1-for-3 in a loss to the Rangers on Friday. The 30-year-old drew the start at designated hitter and was able to contribute a single in his first taste of big-league action this season. Ford generated a lackluster .206/.302/.313 slash line across 149 plate appearances with a whopping four major-league teams in 2022, and even with his success thus far this minor-league season in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League, it remains to be seen how much he can contribute outside of the occasional power numbers.

The Reds selected Abbott's contract from Triple-A Louisville ahead of his scheduled start Monday versus the Brewers. Abbott is slated to make his major-league debut Monday and will line up for a two-start week, with Cincinnati already confirming him to make his next turn through the rotation Saturday in St. Louis. The left-hander leads the minor leagues with 90 strikeouts thus far in 2023 to go along with a 2.50 ERA and 0.93 WHIP along the way across 54 innings between Double-A Pensacola and Louisville. Abbott's first matchup is a good one, as the Brewers rank last in baseball as a team with a .281 wOBA versus lefties.

Reds' Andrew Abbott: Added to roster ahead of debut

Stephenson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 2-0 win over Milwaukee. Offense was scarce in the contest, and Stephenson accounted for one of two total runs with his fourth-inning solo blast. The long ball was his first since May 13, a span of 19 games. Stephenson has struggled since that previous homer, batting .189 with 24 strikeouts and just 14 hits over 74 at-bats.
