Miami guard Dwyane Wade is inactive for the Heat's game against the Memphis Grizzlies with an injured left wrist.

Wade received treatment on the wrist before Saturday's game in an attempt to play, but was declared inactive.

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said Wade hurt the wrist when he fell during a fast break in Miami's 95-87 home victory over Charlotte on Friday night.

Spoelstra said Wade was to have an X-ray on the wrist.

Wade also has been suffering from a flulike illness, but Spoelstra said his fever has passed.

Heat forward LeBron James said someone else was going to have to ''step up,'' and everyone on the team has to be more aggressive.
