Injured List "injuries" Every team is allowed 15 players on the roster. 12 active and 3 on injured reserve. Which leads teams to force 3 players to the injured list whether or not they are injured. Many times teams have to make up injuries for their players. I found it humorous to read the Heat's "injuries", especially rookie Matt Freije who has an <font color="Red">"upper respiratory infection"</font> Poor guy Couldnt the Heat have come up with something more creative ?? From the Miami Herald: ROSTER SET Dorell Wright was one of three players placed on the injured list, setting the active roster at 12. <font color="Red">Wright (abdominal strain), fellow rookie Matt Freije (upper respiratory infection) and Jerome Beasley (lower back strain) were placed on the injured list.</font>
LMAO yeah, it is pretty funny how NBA teams just openly lie about injuries like this. Isn't it ironic how 3 lower level players all get injured on the same day at the same time? .
