Chalmers’ nose not broken

? Miami Heat rookie guard Mario Chalmers, who took an elbow to the nose in Saturday’s game at Charlotte, did not suffer a broken nose, Heat officials told the Palm Beach Post on Sunday.

Chalmers, who played college basketball at Kansas, should start Wednesday versus Philadelphia. Coincidentally, teammate Shawn Marion, also smashed in the nose against the Bobcats, does have a broken nose and will have to wear a facemask in games in coming weeks.
