Heat's Nikola Jovic: Cleared to play Tuesday
Jovic (groin) will play Tuesday against the Timberwolves.
Jovic will shake off a probable tag to suit up in this contest. Over his last three games, the forward is averaging 12.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.3 steals, 1.0 blocks and 1.3 three-pointers.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Probable for Tuesday
Jovic is probable for Tuesday's game against the Timberwolves with a left groin contusion.
Jovic was able to play through this same issue Sunday against the Pelicans, finishing with 19 points, six rebounds, three assists, two blocks and three steals in 26 minutes. Miami could get Tyler Herro (toe) back in the mix Tuesday, though Jovic could remain heavily involved with Jaime Jaquez (ankle) already ruled out.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Available to play
Jovic (groin) is available for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Jovic will power through the groin issue, and with both Tyler Herro (toe) and Jaime Jaquez (ankle) missing in action, Jovic should see quality minutes in the rotation. Over the past five games, Jovic has averaged 14.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 2.2 triples per contest.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Nursing groin injury
Jovic (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
Jovic was able to shake off a right elbow injury to play Saturday against the Timberwolves, when he logged 14 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four assists, three rebounds and one steal over 28 minutes. Jaime Jaquez (ankle), is listed as doubtful, so if he and Jovic cannot play Sunday, then Simone Fontecchio would be in line for a sizable increase in minutes off the bench.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Cleared to play Saturday
Jobic (elbow) is available for Saturday's game against the Timberwolves, Zachary Weinberger of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Jobic popped up on Friday's injury report due to a right elbow issue, but it won't prevent him from playing in Saturday's interconference clash. He has averaged 14.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 2.5 threes over 24.0 minutes per game over his last four outings.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Probable for Saturday
Jovic (elbow) is probable for Saturday's game against Minnesota.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Pops for 22 points
Jovic finished Monday's 147-123 victory over the Nuggets with 22 points (7-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 26 minutes.
With Tyler Herro (toe) still on the mend, Jovic was able to take advantage of his opportunity Monday. He's certainly trending up for Miami, posting averages of 17.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.0 three-pointers in 23.9 minutes per contest.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Adds 10 points in return
Jovic (elbow) closed with 10 points (3-14 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal over 21 minutes during Friday's 126-111 win over Atlanta.
Jovic was back in the lineup after missing five games with an elbow injury. He slotted straight into a meaningful role, scoring double digits for just the second time in his past 10 games. There are simply too many mouths to feed in Miami when the roster is healthy, making Jovic a target in deeper leagues at this point.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Available vs. Atlanta
Jovic (elbow) is available for Friday's game against the Hawks.
Jovic was deemed probable to play Friday, so this isn't much of a surprise. Look for the forward to be an option in the second unit. Jovic hasn't played since Dec. 6. He's averaging 7.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game when deployed off the bench this season.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: On track to return Friday
Jovic (elbow) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Hawks.
Jovic has been sidelined for Miami's last six games while recovering from a right elbow contusion. He is trending toward suiting up Friday, but he may not be part of the regular rotation right away.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Likely to miss at least one week
Jovic (elbow) is considered week-to-week, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports Wednesday.
Jovic is expected to miss at least one week with a right elbow contusion, which an MRI revealed Tuesday following the forward's exit from Monday's loss to the Raptors. In his absence, Kel'el Ware and Simone Fontecchio should pick up a few extra minutes off the bench.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Does not practice
Jovic (arm) did not practice Wednesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Jovic was diagnosed with an elbow contusion after leaving Monday's game early. The Heat are calling him day-to-day, and it will be interesting to see if he's able to draw a questionable tag ahead of Thursday's game against Brooklyn.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Nursing elbow contusion
Jovic is day-to-day with a right elbow contusion, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald repeats.
Jovic left Monday's loss to the Raptors early, and an MRI revealed fairly encouraging results Tuesday. The Heat will release their official injury report at some point Wednesday prior to Thursday's game against the Nets, which should help further clarify Jovic's health.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: X-rays return negative
X-rays on Jovic's right arm came back negative, and he'll undergo an MRI on Tuesday, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
This is promising news for the Heat after it looked as though Jovic suffered a significant injury during Monday's matchup against the Raptors. Tuesday's scans should give Miami a better idea of the timetable for Jovic's return to play.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Won't return Monday
Jovic sustained a right elbow injury in the first quarter of Monday's game against the Raptors and will not return.
Jovic was hit while he was in the air during a dunk attempt and hit the floor hard before leaving the court with a brace on his arm. He'll finish with no counting stats over just 12 seconds. Keshad Johnson and Jaime Jaquez are candidates for increased minutes the rest of the way. Jovic should be considered doubtful for Thursday's game against the Nets until the Heat offer an update on his status.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Dishes out six assists Saturday
Jovic finished Saturday's 127-111 loss to Sacramento with 12 points (4-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six assists, two rebounds and one steal across 31 minutes.
After recording a DNP-CD in Friday's loss to Orlando, Jovic logged a season-high-tying 31 minutes with Tyler Herro (toe), Davion Mitchell (groin) and Pelle Larsson (hip) sidelined Saturday. Jovic wasn't extremely efficient but was still one of five Heat players to score in double figures. The 22-year-old forward also dished out a team- and season-high-tying six assists. Jovic has seen double-digit minutes just once through four games in December, so he isn't guaranteed significant playing time when the team is at full strength.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Goes scoreless again Wednesday
Jovic posted zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one block in six minutes during Wednesday's 118-108 loss to Dallas.
Jovic failed to score for the second straight game, continuing what has been a disastrous season thus far. Seen as a possible breakout candidate, at least to begin the season, Jovic has basically fallen out of the rotation. After receiving five straight DNP-CDs, Jovic has since averaged just 5.7 minutes per game in his last three appearances.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Struggles in limited time
Jovic recorded two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 FT), two rebounds and one assist across 10 minutes in Saturday's 138-135 loss to the Pistons.
After missing four straight games due to a right hip impingement, Jovic was active Wednesday for the Heat's 106-103 win over the Bucks, but he was left out of the rotation in a coach's decision. Though he ended up displacing Simone Fontecchio on the second unit Saturday, Jovic struggled in his limited minutes, as he committed a team-high five turnovers during his time on the court. Even if head coach Erik Spoelstra elects to prioritize Jovic ahead of Fontecchio in future contests, Jovic could still be at risk of falling back out of the rotation in Monday's game against the Clippers if Jaime Jaquez (groin) is cleared to return to action after sitting out Saturday's contest.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Expected to play
Jovic (hip) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Jovic was previously listed as questionable, but he appears likely to return from a four-game absence. With Kel'el Ware playing so well alongside Bam Adebayo, Jovic isn't guaranteed many minutes against the Bucks.

Heat's Nikola Jovic: Off injury report
Jovic (hip) will play in Wednesday's game against Milwaukee.
Jovic has missed four straight games with a pinched nerve in his right hip. He'll retake the hardwood Wednesday night, but he may not see as large of a role as he previously had. The Heat are now fully healthy, and the pairing of Kel'el Ware and Bam Adebayo has been a clear positive. Jovic is averaging 21.4 minutes per game this season.
