Forward James Jones (wrist) will travel with the team on its upcoming seven-game trip, and he is expected to practice or at least participate in contact drills and some five-on-five work.

''If you just came in and saw all of our noncontact drills you would think he is ready to go right now, which he is except the contact and the strength and the pulling and grabbing,'' Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Saturday. ``We're going to ease him into that as his wrist gets 100 percent healthy.''
