NBA-National Basketball Association roundup

Feb 17 (The Sports Xchange) - Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh will not practice or accompany the team to Atlanta for its game on Friday night against the Hawks. The Heat released a statement on Wednesday that didn't specify why Bosh was not able to work out or play. He missed the NBA All-Star Game and 3-point shooting contest last weekend because of a strained right calf. Reports surfaced since then that Bosh might have blood clots in the leg. - - Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist underwent successful surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder, the team announced. Kidd-Gilchrist will miss the remainder of the 2015-16 season after suffering a second labrum injury. He hurt the shoulder again Feb. 10 in a win over the Indiana Pacers after recovering from a labrum tear during preseason to return to the court. - - The Memphis Grizzlies recalled forward James Ennis from the Iowa Energy of the NBA Development League. The 6-foot-7, 210-pound Ennis has averaged 16.7 points, 5.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 15 games (13 starts) through eight assignments with the Energy. (Editing by Frank Pingue)
