Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh took the next step in his rehab from a lower-abdominal strain on Monday morning, but he's still ruled out of Monday's Game 1 against the Boston Celtics and his status for the remainder of the series remains in doubt.

Bosh went through an on-court workout Sunday with Heat assistant coach Keith Askins, but the Heat continue to downplay the progress he's made.

Per ESPN:

"I'm not even preparing for that right now," Spoelstra said earlier Sunday when asked about Bosh's status for the series. "I'm preparing for who we have in the gym. So our focus is (Monday). And that's all I can concentrate on. We have enough to win (Monday). That's all that any of our guys should be focused on."
