Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo has 17 points, six boards vs. Dallas
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 6:42 PM
Bam Adebayo produced 17 points (5-of-13 FGs, 7-of-11 FTs), six rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks in the win over the Mavericks on Monday.
Analysis: Adebayo finished Monday's game as one of four Heat players to score in double figures ??" despite not shooting well from beyond the arc, he utilized the free-throw line to find his scoring production. The veteran forward's shooting has been inconsistent since returning from injury on November 19th, but he has consistently hovered around 20 points on a nightly basis. His rebounding has also been uneven as Kel'el Ware has dominated the glass recently. Adebayo should start to round back into for the further removed he is from the toe injury |

Tyler Herro Tyler Herro (ankle) scores 24 in season debut
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 6:22 PM
Tyler Herro (Ankle) totaled 24 points (12-of-18 FGs), seven rebounds and three steals in the win over the Mavericks on Monday.
Analysis: Herro impressed in his season debut on Monday. He shot the ball efficiently and led the Heat in scoring on the night. Yet, he didn't make a three-pointer, failed to register an assist, and didn't get to the free-throw line. In other words, Herro still left a lot of meat on the bone. But it's encouraging that he was able to have such a strong production regardless. As he continues to reintegrate himself, the production should only increase. |

Tyler Herro Tyler Herro (ankle) to make season debut vs. DAL
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 12:44 PM
Anthony Chiang
Tyler Herro (ankle) is available to play on Monday against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Herro will take the floor for the first time all season on Monday. He led the Heat in scoring a season ago, which is when he earned his first All-Star selection. His return comes on a day when the Heat will be without its leading scorer, Norman Powell, who is dealing with a groin injury. Fantasy managers should be prepared to be patient with Herro in the early going, with him potentially being under a minutes restriction as he works his way back into form. The Heat are fourth in the Eastern Conference standings. |

Nikola Jovic Nikola Jovi? (hip) out Monday vs. Mavericks
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 8:33 AM
Nikola Jovi? (hip) is out for Monday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Jovi? is set to miss his fourth consecutive game with a hip injury. Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Simone Fontecchio should continue to see additional minutes off the bench in his absence against the Mavericks on Monday. |
|
Andrew Wiggins Andrew Wiggins (hip) remains out Monday vs. Mavs
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 8:30 AM
Andrew Wiggins (hip) is out for Monday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Wiggins is set to miss his third consecutive game with a left hip flexor injury. The 30-year-old forward's absence will likely lead to another start for Kel'el Ware, who has already started 13 games this season. Ware should be rostered in most formats at this point. |

Norman Powell Norman Powell (groin) out Monday vs. Mavericks
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 8:18 AM
Norman Powell (groin) is out for Monday's game against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Powell dropped 32 points in the win over the 76ers on Sunday, but he'll sit out the second game of a back-to-back against the Mavericks on Monday. The 32-year-old shooting guard had been on the injury report with left hip irritation in previous games, but is now dealing with a groin injury. His usage should be absorbed by Tyler Herro, who is set to make his season debut Monday. |

Tyler Herro Shams: Herro (ankle) plans to make debut Monday
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 2:14 PM
Shams Charania
ESPN's Shams Charania reports that Tyler Herro (ankle) plans to make his season debut on Monday against the Mavericks.
Analysis: With it being initially reported a few days ago that Herro was targeting November 24 for his season debut, Sunday's report is unsurprising. If he does play against the Mavericks, fantasy managers should anticipate the Heat guard being under a minutes restriction. Norman Powell's fantasy value should be fine once Herro is fully cleared, but Pelle Larsson may take a significant hit to his. |

Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo posts 18/13/1/1 line vs. Philadelphia
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 9:31 AM
Bam Adebayo tallied 18 points (7-of-14 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), 13 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one three-pointer in Sunday's win over the 76ers.
Analysis: Adebayo has scored at least 18 points in all three games he's played since returning from a toe injury, and he recorded his first post-injury double-double on Sunday. Over the past week, he's been ranked just outside the top-25 in nine-cat formats. Adebayo's season-long value has not aligned with his Yahoo! ADP (32), but he isn't far away. The Heat play three games during Week 6, starting with the Mavericks on Monday. |

Jaime Jaquez Jaime Jaquez Jr. records 22 points, seven assists
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 9:31 AM
Jaime Jaquez Jr. accounted for 22 points (10-of-12 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), two rebounds and seven assists in Sunday's win over the 76ers.
Analysis: While his production did slow in recent games ahead of Sunday's matinee, Jaquez continues to outperform his Yahoo! ADP of 135. Having scored 20 points or more in six games this season, he's posting career-high averages in points, rebounds and assists. Jaquez is rostered in 50 percent of Yahoo! leagues, but the percentage may decrease slightly during Week 6 due to the Heat's poor schedule. Two of their three games are on Monday and Wednesday, when most of the league is playing, leaving fringe options less desirable in fantasy. |

Norman Powell Norman Powell scores game-high 32 points vs. PHI
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 9:29 AM
Norman Powell finished Sunday's win over the 76ers with 32 points (11-of-18 FGs, 6-of-9 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, two steals and four three-pointers.
Analysis: Powell came out hot on Sunday, scoring ten points in the first quarter. The Heat guard would finish with his fourth 30-point game of the season, once again leading the way offensively. Powell has been a fantasy standout thus far, and his play has been one reason the Heat have been as explosive offensively as they've been in years. Tyler Herro, who has been out after undergoing offseason ankle surgery, could make his season debut on Monday. Powell's fantasy value should be fine, but the dynamic between those two is worth tracking. |

Norman Powell Norman Powell (hip) available Sunday vs. PHI
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 6:24 AM
Miami Heat
Norman Powell (hip) is available for Sunday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis: Due to left hip irritation, Powell was initially probable for Sunday's game. He'll take on his usual role as Miami's top perimeter scoring option in what could be the team's final game before Tyler Herro makes his season debut. It has been reported that the Heat guard is targeting Monday's home game against the Mavericks for his first action after undergoing offseason ankle surgery. |

Andrew Wiggins Andrew Wiggins (hip) to remain out Sunday
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 9:02 AM
Andrew Wiggins (hip) is out for Sunday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis: Wiggins missed Friday's game against the Bulls with Kel'el Ware moving into the starting lineup. The 30-year-old small forward is dealing with a left hip flexor injury. Wiggins' absence is likely more good news for fantasy managers that have Ware, who should continue to start. |

Norman Powell Norman Powell (hip) probable Sunday vs. 76ers
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 8:57 AM
Norman Powell (hip) is probable for Sunday's game against the 76ers.
Analysis: Powell is listed as probable with left hip irritation. The 32-year-old shooting guard is off to a great start, providing second-round value so far this year. With Tyler Herro (ankle) and Andrew Wiggins (hip) already ruled out, this is another opportunity for Powell to have a ceiling game. |

Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo has 18/7/5 line in win over Bulls
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 4:55 PM
Bam Adebayo had 18 points (4-of-11 FGs, 8-of-10 FTs), seven rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two three-pointers in the Heat's 143-107 victory over the Bulls on Friday.
Analysis: Adebayo returned from a two-week absence with a toe injury against the Warriors on Wednesday and had 20 points in 29 minutes. The 28-year-old center had 18 points in 29 minutes in the Heat's route of the Bulls on Friday. Adebayo is showing no ill effects in the two games since returning from his injury. The Heat will be back in action against the 76ers on Sunday. |

Nikola Jovic Nikola Jovi? (hip) remains out on Friday
Thu, Nov 20, 2025, 9:03 AM
Miami Heat
Nikola Jovi? (hip) is out for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: Jovi? had his hip injury pop up before Wednesday's game against the Warriors and missed that one as well. He will now sit out one more, and with Andrew Wiggins (hip) also out, that should be more usage and minutes for Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Simone Fontecchio. |
|
Andrew Wiggins Andrew Wiggins (hip) ruled out for Friday
Thu, Nov 20, 2025, 9:01 AM
Miami Heat
Andrew Wiggins (hip) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls.
Analysis: It's been reported that Wiggins' injury won't linger, so there's a chance he's back on Sunday against the 76ers. With Tyler Herro (ankle) also not returning until Monday, that should mean continued high usage for Jaime Jaquez Jr. and extra minutes for Simone Fontecchio and maybe Pelle Larsson as well. |

Norman Powell Norman Powell has 25 points, four threes in win
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 4:30 PM
Norman Powell had 25 points (10-of-14 FGs, 1-of-1 FT), six rebounds, three assists, one steal and four three-pointers against the Warriors on Wednesday.
Analysis: Powell made at least four three-pointers for the fourth time in his last five games. The 32-year-old shooting guard is still the top dog on the Heat until Tyler Herro (ankle) returns. One of the most consistent scorers in the league, don't expect Powell's role to change much. |

Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo has 20 points in return from injury
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 4:23 PM
Bam Adebayo had 20 points (7-of-13 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), seven rebounds, three assists, one steal, two blocks and three three-pointers in the Heat's 110-96 victory over the Warriors on Wednesday.
Analysis: Adebayo missed two weeks and six games with a toe injury before returning to the Heat's lineup on Wednesday. The 28-year-old center played 29 minutes and had a great game with 20 points and a complete stat line. Adebayo's return pushed Kal'el Ware to the bench, though he still played 19 minutes as well. |

Bam Adebayo MIA starts Mitchell, Powell, Larsson, Wiggins, Bam
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 1:05 PM
Anthony Chiang
Davion Mitchell, Norman Powell, Pelle Larsson, Andrew Wiggins, and Bam Adebayo will start Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis: The Heat have only made one change to their starting lineup, but it's a big one. Adebayo is back after a six-game absence, and his return pushes Kel'el Ware to the bench. Ware will still play plenty, but he has a slightly lower fantasy ceiling when used in a reserve role. |

Tyler Herro Report: Herro (ankle) targeting November 24 debut
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 1:02 PM
Tim Reynolds
The Associated Press' Tim Reynolds reports that Tyler Herro (ankle) may be targeting November 24 to make his season debut.
Analysis: Herro underwent ankle surgery in mid-September and has not appeared in a game this season. However, that may change soon, as it's reported that Monday's game against the Mavericks could be the target date for Herro to play. His return will impact the entire Heat perimeter rotation. Norman Powell's role may not change much, but Pelle Larsson could head to the bench and Davion Mitchell may not have the ball in his hands as much as a playmaker. |
