Indiana Pacers star T.J. Warren is expected to play in Game 1 of the first-round playoff series against the Miami Heat.

The star of the Pacers has been dealing with plantar fasciitis and missed the last two seeding games of the team.

However, he practiced on Sunday and is expected to be ready for the clash with the Heat on Tuesday.

“I’m just taking care of it every day. Anybody who’s familiar with plantar fasciitis, it’s pretty tough but the trainers have been doing a good job of getting me up for treatment and just being proactive with it. I’m gonna be good either way. I’m gonna be ready,” Warren told reporters, according to Ethan Sears of the Indianapolis Star.

 Warren has been averaging 31.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.2 blocks in six games in the Orlando “bubble”.
