Shaquille O'Neal

Heat center Shaquille O'Neal is expected to miss between two to four weeks because of his sprained right ankle, which means he could miss anywhere from six to 14 games.
Shaquille O'Neal was injured during the Heat's contest against the Indiana Pacers on Thursday. With 6:35 remaining in the game, O'Neal landed awkwardly while going for a rebound. He fell to the floor and remained down for a few minutes.

O'Neal was helped off the court and taken to the locker room by team trainers and didn't return. Without O'Neal, the Heat ended losing 105-102.

According to the timetable given for Shaquille O'Neal's return, he should be back before the Heat hits the West Coast for four games beginning on Dec. 2 at Sacramento.
