 Bosh was admitted to a Miami hospital on Thursday after
complaining for several days about discomfort in his chest.
He underwent initial tests that proved inconclusive, according to
the Heat. The fear is that Bosh could have blood clots in his lungs,
the newspaper reported Friday.
If there are clots, Bosh would miss the remainder of the season
while being treated with blood thinners for pulmonary embolism.
Treatment of such a condition typically requires at least six months
of limited physical activity.
Bosh, a 10-time All-Star who won two NBA titles with the Heat, was
averaging 21.1 points and 7.0 rebounds this season. Last July, he
signed a five-year contract that guaranteed him $118 million.

The Philadelphia 76ers are keeping guard Tim Frazier around at least
a little while longer, signing him to a second 10-day contract.

assists.
