Klay Thompson Klay Thompson hits seven three-pointers Friday
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 5:38 PM
Klay Thompson accumulated 25 points (9-of-14 FGs), three assists and seven three-pointers in Friday's win over the Pacers.
Analysis: Entering Friday, Thompson was shooting 31.7 percent from the field and 32.1 percent from three. To say a night like Friday was needed would be an understatement. Against the Pacers, Thompson shot 7-of-12 from beyond the arc, and 25 points is the most he has scored in a game since January 15, as a member of the Mavericks. With neither Giannis Antetokounmpo nor Bam Adebayo offering much perimeter shooting as Miami's top two offensive options, Thompson needs to hit shots consistently. Friday's 145-point outburst showed what can happen when he and the other Heat shooters are productive. |
Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo posts 27/9/3/3 stat line vs. Indiana
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 5:33 PM
Bam Adebayo recorded 27 points (11-of-14 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), nine rebounds, three assists and three steals in Friday's win over the Pacers.
Analysis: After scoring 24 points in Wednesday's win over the Hawks, Adebayo was even more productive against the Pacers. He shot 11-of-12 inside the arc, including 10-of-11 in the paint. Add in the rebounds and steals, and Bam had a good night. There's still plenty of basketball to be played, but Adebayo and Giannis Antetokounmpo appeared to have improved chemistry in Miami's last two games. |
Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis dominates, records 31/17/10 stat line
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 5:30 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo finished Friday's win over the Pacers with 31 points (13-of-18 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), 17 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one three-pointer.
Analysis: The Pacers had no answer for Giannis on Friday, as he scored 24 of his 31 points in the paint. The partnership between Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo looked a bit awkward at the start of the season, which isn't surprising. But both have looked more comfortable in the last two games, both Heat victories. And it helps that the Heat shot 18-of-40 from three against the Pacers, which provided much-needed spacing on offense. |

Anthony Chiang
Simone Fontecchio (illness) will be available to play against the Pacers on Friday.
Analysis: Simone has been more of an emergency depth option for the heat this year, so even though he's available, he's not expected to make a major impact in fantasy leagues. |

NBA Injury Report
Simone Fontecchio (illness) is probable for Friday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Fontecchio is on track to play after sitting out Wednesday's win over the Hawks. While his return would give the Heat another wing option, Fontecchio was a DNP-CD in the two games before Wednesday. His status is unlikely to impact the rotation. |

NBA Injury Report
Simone Fontecchio (illness) is questionable to play against the Pacers on Friday.
Analysis: Fontecchio could be back after missing Wednesday's game against Atlanta. He didn't see the floor in each of the last two games he was available for, so his status won't alter the Miami rotation. |
Pelle Larsson Pelle Larsson has 17/6/8 line in win vs. Hawks
Wed, Oct 28, 2026, 4:23 PM
Pelle Larsson had 17 points (6-of-12 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists, one steal and two three-pointers against the Hawks on Wednesday.
Analysis: Larsson has recorded at least 12 points, at least four assists, at least one steal and at least one three-pointer in three consecutive games. He's also played at least 31 minutes in three consecutive games and had at least six rebounds in two of the last three games. Larsson is turning out to be a key bench player for the Heat and worth considering picking up given his recent production. |

Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo has 24 points in win over Hawks
Wed, Oct 28, 2026, 4:18 PM
Bam Adebayo had 24 points (8-of-16 FGs, 8-of-9 FTs), nine rebounds, three assists and three steals against the Hawks on Wednesday.
Analysis: Adebayo bounced back nicely after scoring only eight points in Monday's loss to the Mavericks. The 24 points Adebayo had are his season-high through five games. He'll look to keep up his scoring against the Pacers on Friday. |

Wed, Oct 28, 2026, 4:14 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 24 points (11-of-18 FGs, 2-of-5 FTs), 18 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in Wednesday's 129-117 victory over the Hawks.
Analysis: Antetokounmpo's fantasy production hadn't suffered despite the slow start by his new team the Heat. After an 0-4 start to the season, Miami finally picked up its first win against the Hawks Wednesday. Antetokounmpo was excellent again as he grabbed a game-high 18 rebounds, which was at least twice as many as anyone else. |

Pelle Larsson (ankle) is available to play against the Hawks on Wednesday.

NBA Injury Report
Simone Fontecchio (illness) has been ruled out against the Hawks on Wednesday.
Analysis: Fontecchio was initially listed as doubtful for this game and has now officially been sidelined. He has played a grand total of six minutes this season and didn't see the floor in either of Miami's last two games, so his absence won't alter the team's rotation. |

NBA Injury Report

Davion Mitchell Davion Mitchell scores 21 points vs. Dallas
Mon, Oct 26, 2026, 5:02 PM
Davion Mitchell lit up the Mavericks with 21 points (9-of-15 FGs), two assists, three steals and two three-pointers on Monday.
Analysis: It has been a fantastic start to the season for Mitchell, and that continued in this game. Through four games, he is averaging 18 points and seven assists per game while recording two double-doubles. He didn't contribute as many dimes in this game, but his scoring has been consistent. He should continue to produce at a high level as Miami's starting point guard. |
Bobby Portis Jr. Bobby Portis Jr. posts double-double off bench
Mon, Oct 26, 2026, 4:56 PM
Bobby Portis Jr. provided a boost off the bench with 10 points (3-of-11 FGs), 12 rebounds, two assists, two blocks and three three-pointers on Monday against the Mavericks.
Analysis: Portis has been a reliable role player for Miami this season, but this may have been his best performance. He wasn't quite as efficient as a scorer as he was the last two games, but he was able to record his first double-double of the season and set a new season high for rebounds. He'll continue to be a solid option off the bench, though he won't produce consistently enough to warrant consideration in fantasy basketball. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis posts triple-double as Heat fall to 0-4
Mon, Oct 26, 2026, 4:50 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Heat with 29 points (12-of-23 FGs, 3-of-7 FTs), 15 rebounds, 11 assists, one block, two three-pointers and five turnovers in a 113-109 loss to the Mavericks on Monday.
Analysis: Giannis dominated this game early on and nearly had a triple-double before halftime, and he was able to secure his first one with the Heat just a few minutes into the third quarter. However, it wasn't enough to get their first win of the season. Giannis was much better than he was in Saturday's loss to Charlotte, but he didn't get much help from his co-star Bam Adebayo, who was held to just eight points. Antetokounmpo should continue to post gaudy stat lines, and they'll head to Atlanta for their next game on Wednesday. |

Davion Mitchell Davion Mitchell records another double-double
Sat, Oct 24, 2026, 2:58 PM
Davion Mitchell led the Heat with 22 points (8-of-13 FGs), one rebound, 10 assists, one steal and three three-pointers in a 15-110 loss to the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: Miami trailed by 21 points entering the fourth quarter, but Mitchell fueled a monster comeback, mostly with Giannis Antetokounmpo on the bench. That didn't result in a win, but it was another strong performance for him. He has been fantastic this year, averaging 17.0 points, 8.7 assists and 2.3 three-pointers per game, all of which would be career bests for him. He has been a bright spot despite a rough start to the year for Miami. |

Pelle Larsson Pelle Larsson turns in 15/7/4/1 line vs. Charlotte
Sat, Oct 24, 2026, 2:54 PM
Pelle Larsson provided a boost off the bench with 15 points (5-of-9 FGs), seven rebounds, four assists, one steal and one three-pointer against the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: After a rough start to the year offensively, Larsson was able to get things going in this one. He totaled nine points on 1-of-9 shooting across his first two outings, so this performance was a huge step in the right direction. Larsson was a late-round flier for fantasy managers hoping he would take a step forward for the Heat this season. He's trending in the right direction, but he'll need to produce to this level more consistently to be worth keeping rostered. |

Bam Adebayo Bam Adebayo tallies 20/8/4/1/1 vs. Charlotte
Sat, Oct 24, 2026, 2:49 PM
Bam Adebayo finished with 20 points (7-of-17 FGs), eight rebounds, four assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers on Saturday against the Hornets.
Analysis: It has been a rough start to the year for Bam, but after totaling 19 points in Miami's first two games, he was able to surpass that mark in this one. It wasn't enough for them to get in the win column, but it was good to see him have a productive outing. He'll try to build on this performance in their next game, which comes against the Mavericks on Monday. |

Giannis Antetokounmpo Antetokounmpo held to 14 points in loss to Hornets
Sat, Oct 24, 2026, 2:46 PM
Giannis Antetokounmpo finished with 14 points (4-of-11 FGs, 6-of-8 FTs), six rebounds, three assists and one steal against the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: So far this season, the story for Miami has been that Giannis hasn't had enough help. Well, his teammates stepped up more in this game, but Antetokounmpo wasn't quite as productive. They went on a big run without him to tie things up in the fourth quarter. He entered with about four minutes left, committed two fouls in three minutes, and the Hornets took a six-point lead. It was a rough performance for him, but there is no reason for managers to worry. He averaged 35.5 points through their first two games and should get back on track against the Mavericks on Monday. |

Klay Thompson Klay Thompson scores 14 points vs. Charlotte
Sat, Oct 24, 2026, 2:44 PM
Klay Thompson contributed 14 points (5-of-12 FGs), three rebounds, one steal and four three-pointers against the Hornets on Saturday.
Analysis: Following a rough shooting performance against the Pistons on Friday, Thompson was able to find his shot in this one. He set season highs for points and three-pointers, though it wasn't enough for them to get their first win of the season. For now, Thompson should continue to start and provide floor spacing. If you're looking for production outside of triples, it's best to look elsewhere. |
