Rotowire
Robinson finished Sunday's 119-110 loss to the Pacers with 20 points (6-10 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and four assists across 31 minutes.
Robinson saw extended time off the bench in Sunday's contest due to the Heat being shorthanded, leading all bench players in the defeat in scoring and threes made in a 20-point showcase. Robinson matched a season high in scoring while posting his second outing of the year with at least five threes. Notably, all three of Robinson's double-digit scoring efforts this year have taken place over the last five games.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Shooting woes in loss
Rotowire
Robinson supplied 14 points (6-16 FG, 2-10 3Pt), six rebounds, four steals and three assists across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 123-121 overtime loss to the Pistons.
The sharpshooter led the bench in scoring alongside Jaime Jaquez, though Robinson struggled with efficiency in the loss. The 30-year-old scored in double figures for only the second time this year, and while he is shooting an efficient 37.5 percent from deep, he has struggled from inside the arc while shooting only 38.0 percent from the field. Through nine regular-season appearances, Robinson has averaged 9.0 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 18.6 minutes per game.

Rotowire
Robinson finished Friday's 135-122 loss to the Nuggets with 20 points (7-12 FG, 6-10 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists and one steal in 20 minutes.
Robinson set season highs in made field goals, made three-pointers and points during Friday's loss while playing at least 20 minutes for just the second time this year. Jimmy Butler (ankle) left the contest early, and if he misses time, Robinson may have increased offensive responsibilities moving forward.

Robinson hit three three-pointers for a second straight game and is averaging 1.8 threes on 5.2 attempts this season (35.5 percent).

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Quiet in victory Monday
Rotowire
Robinson ended with six points (2-8 FG, 2-7 3Pt) and one rebound over 16 minutes during Monday's 106-98 victory over Detroit.
Robinson was used sparingly off the bench, a trend that appears likely to stick moving forward. He has scored a combined 16 points over the first three games, making him a non-factor in most fantasy formats. Other than limited value as a three-point streamer, Robinson can be ignored for the time being.

Rotowire
Robinson won't play in Friday's preseason game versus the Grizzlies for rest purposes, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Efficient from downtown Sunday
Rotowire
Robinson posted 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 18 minutes in Sunday's 101-99 preseason win over the Pelicans.
Robinson was extremely efficient while tying Tyler Herro for the team high in points. Herro and Robinson also tied CJ McCollum for the game high in three-pointers made, but Robinson was much more efficient from downtown. The sharpshooter is expected to come off the bench and will have to compete for playing time with Josh Richardson (shoulder) behind Herro.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Fails to score in three minutes
Rotowire
Robinson finished Monday's 102-88 loss to Boston in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist over three minutes.
Robinson hit rock bottom in the loss, failing to score in only three minutes of playing time. It's a far cry from what he did during the regular season and highlights how unimpactful he can be. The Heat will now head back to Boston where they will attempt to extend the series beyond five games.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Cleared for Game 1
Rotowire
Robinson (back) is available for Sunday's Game 1 versus Boston, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Robinson was unavailable for Miami's Play-In Tournament loss to Philadelphia but returned in a win-or-go-home contest versus Chicago on Friday, dropping eight points in 12 minutes of a blowout victory. He's a candidate to step into a larger workload Sunday, especially with Terry Rozier (neck) and Jimmy Butler (knee) out. However, the extent to which he'll play is unclear after experiencing aggravations with his ongoing facet syndrome in recent weeks.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Makes return in Play-In game
Rotowire
Robinson (back) recorded eight points (3-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist across 12 minutes Friday in the Heat's 112-91 win over the Bulls in the Eastern Conference Play-In Tournament.
Robinson missed the final four games of the regular season with left facet syndrome, but he was cleared to play in advance of the Heat's first game of the Play-In Tournament on Wednesday. He ultimately went unused in Wednesday's 105-104 loss to the 76ers, but a rotation spot opened up for Robinson on Friday due to Jimmy Butler (knee) being sidelined with an MCL sprain. Though Butler doesn't appear on track to return during the Heat's first-round playoff series with the Celtics, Robinson could be squeezed out of the rotation if Miami gets Terry Rozier (neck) back for Sunday's Game 1 in Boston.

Heat's Duncan Robinson: Officially available for Friday
Rotowire
Robinson (back) is available for Friday's Play-In Game against Chicago, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Robinson was probable for Friday's matchup, so his availability isn't very surprising. However, he was also available for Wednesday's Play-In Game against the 76ers but didn't see any playing time. Jimmy Butler (knee) and Terry Rozier (neck) are both out, so Miami may need minutes of Robinson even if he isn't 100 percent.
