Washington forward Antawn Jamison won't let his sore right knee keep him from playing Tuesday, when the Wizards meet the Miami Heat in Game 2 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series.

Jamison left the court with 8:16 remaining in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 105-86 loss to Miami and did not return. The All-Star has battled tendinitis in the knee for much of the season's second half.

"Me being at 75, 80 percent is better than me not being out there at all," Jamison said Monday after Washington's practice.
