Gafford (thumb) will be available for Thursday's game against the Heat, Quinton Mayo of BlueWire reports.

Gafford is battling a sprained right thumb, but coach Wes Unseld said pregame that the big man will attempt to play through the injury. Unseld did sound somewhat unsure as to whether Gafford could be limited, so it's possible he could see a lesser workload if the sprain proves to be too painful.
