Timetable for Chris Bosh's return remains unknown - Sun-Sentinel

MIAMI â€"â€"

Progress has been made in Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh's recovery.

The question is how much.

Not much, according to coach Erik Spoelstra.

Spoelstra said Monday not to make a big deal out of Bosh returning to the court for a workout Sunday. It was his first on-court activity since straining an abdominal muscle May 13 against the Indiana Pacers. Bosh missed the final five games of the second-round series.

"He just did the next step and progression of his rehab," Spoelstra said. "There still is not a timetable. It was a very light workout on the court."

Spoelstra said the workout was more "rehab-oriented." The session, attended by team president Pat Riley, took place on the floor after the Heat completed practice.

"It really was more of a progression of his rehab than it was more of a basketball workout," Spoelstra said. "But I could see how it would be interpreted differently."

Bosh has already been ruled out against the Boston Celtics in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Heat will think more of his return once he is able to conduct an actual basketball workout.

"I wouldn't over-read into his workout (Sunday)," Spoelstra said. "We'll continue to reevaluate every day. He'll continue to do his rehab. When he starts legitimate basketball work, I'll pay attention a bit more."
