Cleared for high-impact work Yurtseven's left ankle has fully healed from surgery, and he's been cleared for high-impact work, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Yurtseven underwent successful surgery in mid-November to address an impingement, bone spur and stress reaction in his left ankle. He was deemed out indefinitely following the procedure, but it appears the big man finally has a return date in mind, as Jackson relays that Miami hopes Yurtseven is able to play in games following the All-Star break. When available, the undrafted product out of Georgetown figures to compete with Orlando Robinson and Dewayne Dedmon for the backup center job behind Bam Adebayo.

Likely to undergo surgery Yurtseven (ankle) is expected to undergo surgery later this week and is out indefinitely, Anthony Chiang of The Miami Herald reports.

Impact Yurtseven has already missed each of the Heat's first 13 regular-season games, and with surgery on tap, he'll be in store for an even longer absence to begin the campaign. According to Chiang, the Heat are hopeful that Yurtseven can make a full recovery from surgery in around three months, which would put his timeline to return somewhere around late February or early March. The 24-year-old big man will become a restricted free agent this summer.
