Tyler Herro Tyler Herro dishes out six assists vs. Toronto
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 4:17 PM
Tyler Herro recorded 14 points (5-of-8 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, six assists and one three-pointer in Tuesday's loss to the Raptors.
Analysis: Herro shot the ball well and provided solid value in rebounds and assists, but the impact was muted in Miami's 121-95 defeat. With Bam Adebayo (7/9/3/1 with one three-pointer) shooting 2-of-13 from the field, the Heat could have done with more Herro on the offensive end of the floor. Now trailing Toronto by three games and Philadelphia and Orlando by two in the loss column, the Heat have little margin for error if they're to avoid the Play-In Tournament. |

Norman Powell Norman Powell hits two triples, scores 14 points
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 4:16 PM
Norman Powell amassed 14 points (4-of-12 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds and two three-pointers in Tuesday's loss to the Raptors.
Analysis: Powell shot 2-of-7 from beyond the arc in Toronto, with the work at the foul line giving his points tally a modest boost. The veteran guard logged 24 minutes in his first game back from an upper respiratory illness that sidelined him for four games, with Pelle Larsson (7/3/1 with one three-pointer) remaining in the starting lineup. Miami plays three games over the final four days of the regular season; we'll see how long it takes for Powell to return to the starting five. |

Andrew Wiggins Andrew Wiggins scores team-high 24 points vs. TOR
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 4:15 PM
Andrew Wiggins finished Tuesday's loss to the Raptors with 24 points (8-of-13 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), five rebounds, one assist and four three-pointers.
Analysis: Wiggins was one of the few Heat players able to get anything going offensively in Toronto. On a night when Miami shot 12-of-44 from beyond the arc, he made four of his seven attempts. Wiggins did not record any defensive stats, but most managers in active fantasy leagues will take the offensive production. Miami will look to redeem itself in Thursday's rematch. |

Tyler Herro Tyler Herro (foot) available Tuesday vs. Raptors
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 11:35 AM
Tyler Herro (foot) is available for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: Herro was initially listed as probable with a foot injury, so his availability isn't much of a surprise. The 26-year-old point guard was scratched before Saturday's game against the Wizards for personal reasons, which led to Simone Fontecchio getting a start. Fontecchio will return to the bench with Herro back in the starting lineup on Tuesday. |

NBA Injury Report
Norman Powell (conditioning) is available for Tuesday's matchup with the Raptors.
Analysis: Powell is back following a four-game absence due to an upper respiratory illness. It's unclear if Powell will face any restrictions, but Pelle Larsson's playing time will surely be reduced, regardless of Powell's playing time. |

Analysis: After missing Miami's last four games with an upper respiratory illness, Powell is on track to play against the Raptors. Pelle Larsson may remain in the starting lineup due to the time that Powell has missed, but his playing time would still decrease. |

NBA Injury Report

Mon, Apr 6, 2026, 9:10 AM
NBA Injury Report
Nikola Jovi? (ankle) is out for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.
Analysis: Jovi? sprained his left ankle during Saturday's win over the Wizards. His absence won't have a significant impact on the Heat rotation, as Jovi? has appeared in just three games since the All-Star break. |

Nikola Jovic Nikola Jovi? (ankle) exits during fourth quarter
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 11:38 AM
Nikola Jovi? (ankle) exited Saturday's win over the Wizards with 36.2 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter.
Analysis: Jovi? was injured when his left leg got caught underneath his body after being fouled by Washington's Jamir Watkins on an attempt to convert an alley-oop. While he was able to walk back to the locker room on his own, Jovi? did so slowly. He finished with five points (2-of-6 FGs), two assists and one three-pointer. Saturday's game was the first for Jovi? since March 21, with injuries knocking down the pecking order within the Heat rotation. |

Jaime Jaquez Jaime Jaquez Jr. scores season-high 32 points
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 11:35 AM
Jaime Jaquez Jr. tallied 32 points (12-of-18 FGs, 7-of-7 FTs), three rebounds, four assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Saturday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Jaquez had an excellent Saturday afternoon, as his 32 points were a season-high. And he was highly efficient, shooting 66.7 percent from the field and committing just two turnovers. Add in the assists, and Jaquez enjoyed one of his best all-around performances of the season. |

Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo posts nine boards, seven assists
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 11:34 AM
Bam Adebayo recorded 14 points (3-of-6 FGs, 6-of-7 FTs), nine rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Saturday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: One would not blame the Wizards if they wondered where this version of Adebayo was when he torched them for 83 points on March 10. He attempted just six shots, as the Heat combined to finish one point shy of the franchise record for points in a game (153). The good news for fantasy managers was that Bam provided good value in rebounds and assists, even though his double-double streak ended at five games. |

Andrew Wiggins Andrew Wiggins scores 21 points vs. Washington
Sat, Apr 4, 2026, 11:33 AM
Andrew Wiggins finished Saturday's win over the Wizards with 21 points (7-of-11 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), two rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and four three-pointers.
Analysis: Unlike the last time Miami hosted the Wizards, no single player was responsible for most of the offensive damage. Wiggins was one of seven double-digit scorers, with three putting up at least 21 points. The veteran wing, who shot 4-of-5 from beyond the arc, recorded a complete stat line in 26 minutes of play. Not a bad finish to the week for Wiggins, whose Heat don't play again until Tuesday. |

Miami Heat
Tyler Herro (personal) is out for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Not long after he was announced as a starter, Herro was ruled out for personal reasons. Simone Fontecchio will start, joining Davion Mitchell, Pelle Larsson, Andrew Wiggins and Bam Adebayo. |

Tyler Herro (foot) is probable for Saturday's game against the Wizards.
Analysis: Herro is dealing with a sore right foot, but the probable tag suggests that he will be available on Saturday. If he can't play, Kasparas Jaku?ionis and Kel'el Ware are potential replacements in the starting lineup. Ware offers a higher streaming ceiling when allowed to start. |

Norman Powell Norman Powell (illness) out Saturday vs. WAS
Fri, Apr 3, 2026, 8:34 AM
Barry Jackson
The Miami Herald's Barry Jackson reports that Norman Powell (illness) is out for Saturday's matchup with the Wizards.
Analysis: Powell will sit out a fourth straight game while dealing with an upper respiratory illness, and his next chance to take the court will come on Tuesday. With the fantasy playoffs wrapping up for many managers on Sunday, Powell can be dropped. Pelle Larsson should fill in for him once again. |

Jaime Jaquez Jaime Jaquez Jr. posts double-double, two assists
Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 4:12 PM
Jaime Jaquez Jr. finished Wednesday's loss to the Celtics with 17 points (7-of-16 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and two three-pointers.
Analysis: Jaquez's double-double was his sixth of the season and first in just over two months. Rostered in 36 percent of Yahoo! leagues, the Heat wing is ranked outside the top-150 over the past two weeks. Jaquez's value has not been terrible, but the lack of upside does mean that he isn't a must-roster player in 12-team leagues. |

Tyler Herro Tyler Herro records 18 points, seven assists
Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 4:11 PM
Tyler Herro accounted for 18 points (5-of-15 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), three rebounds, seven assists, one block and four three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Celtics.
Analysis: One game removed from putting up 30 in a win over the 76ers, Herro struggled with his shot on Wednesday. He made just one of his five two-point attempts, which did a number on the overall field-goal percentage. Herro did provide good value in assists and three-pointers, but fantasy managers were likely hoping for a more efficient scoring night. He'll look to bounce back on Saturday when the Heat host the Wizards. |

Davion Mitchell Davion Mitchell hits five triples, scores 21
Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 4:11 PM
Davion Mitchell produced 21 points (8-of-15 FGs), two rebounds, seven assists and five three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Celtics.
Analysis: After struggling with his perimeter shot in his first two-plus NBA seasons, Mitchell has made significant strides since joining the Heat last season. A 44.7 percent shooter from deep in his 30 regular-season games for Miami last season, âOff Nightâ has made over 39 percent of his attempts in 2025-26. Against the Celtics, Mitchell shot 5-of-10 from three and dished out seven assists without a turnover. The Heat play once more in Week 23, as they host the Wizards on Saturday. |

Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo scores team-high 29 points vs. Boston
Wed, Apr 1, 2026, 4:10 PM
Bam Adebayo amassed 29 points (10-of-21 FGs, 4-of-8 FTs), 10 rebounds, two assists, two steals and five three-pointers in Wednesday's loss to the Celtics.
Analysis: Adebayo extended his double-double streak to five games on Wednesday, with the 29 points being the most in a game for him since March 21. Shooting 5-of-10 from beyond the arc, all that Bam's line lacked was a blocked shot. While the Heat aren't locked into the Play-In tournament yet, they risk being seeded ninth or tenth, which would require two wins to reach the playoffs as the 8-seed. |
