— -- Chris Bosh has failed his physical, according to multiple reports, meaning the Miami Heat will not clear him for training camp next week and casting serious doubt on his playing future.

A person with knowledge of the situation spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press because neither Bosh nor the team has announced the result. The Miami Herald reported earlier Friday that the Heat will not clear Bosh to return.

It's a major setback for the 11-time All-Star forward, who wants to resume playing even though each of his last two seasons was cut short by blood clots.

Bosh was examined by multiple doctors in recent days in an attempt to be cleared for camp, which beings next week.
