Jovic is probable for Thursday's game against the Celtics with right knee soreness.

Confirmation on Jovic's status should arrive closer to Thursday's tipoff. The forward played six minutes, his second-fewest of the season, in Tuesday's win over the Suns, so it appears Jovic could be starting to fall out of favor with head coach Erik Spoelstra.
