The Miami Heat canceled practice and their media availability one day after a blowout loss in Game 3 to the Pacers.

The team gave no immediate reason for Friday’s decision, which was announced on the Heat’s media telephone hotline.

Per NBA rules, teams are not required to meet with the media if they don’t hold practice. The Pacers also will not hold practice. Game 4 is Sunday in Indianapolis.

Wade has been slowed by lingering injuries and needed treatment in recent days for knee and leg soreness. The Heat also are without power forward Chris Bosh, who has an abdominal strain.
