MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Shaquille O'Neal was held out of the Miami Heat's matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night because of a sore right thumb he injured on a dunk attempt Sunday night.
O'Neal is listed as questionable for Wednesday night's game at Detroit.
O'Neal participated in Tuesday's shootaround and was listed in the starting lineup, but the team made a late decision to let him rest the thumb. The injury in Sunday's win over New York came when he went up for a dunk and was fouled from behind, as he lost the ball and hit his hand against the rim.
