Top Heat News

  • 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 Tyler Herro: Considered day-to-day

    Herro (toe) is considered day-to-day, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

    An MRI confirmed a big toe contusion for Herro, an injury that kept him out of the lineup Monday against the Raptors. For now, fantasy managers can consider him questionable for Thursday's game against the Nets.

  • Heat's Jaime Jaquez: Balanced output off bench

    Jaquez produced 10 points (5-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and three steals over 30 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to the Raptors.

    Jaquez's fantasy value has taken a hit while the Heat have gotten healthier, though his minutes have remained fairly consistent. Over his last seven appearances, the versatile forward has averaged 12.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 26.0 minutes per game.

  • Heat's Andrew Wiggins: Continues to fill up box score

    Wiggins supplied 10 points (4-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, three blocks and two steals over 32 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to the Raptors.

    It was the ninth consecutive game scoring in double figures for Wiggins, who also supplied a full stat line Monday. The veteran forward has been a well-rounded fantasy producer throughout the 2025-26 campaign, and he has averaged 16.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.6 blocks and 1.1 steals per game over his last nine outings.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Heat's Norman Powell: Ties team high in scoring

    Powell ended with 20 points (5-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 8-10 FT), three rebounds and four assists across 34 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to the Raptors.

    Powell tied for the team lead in points during Monday's low-scoring affair, and his contributions from the foul line helped offset a poor shooting display from the floor. The swingman's usage has held up well since Tyler Herro (toe) made his season debut in late November, with Powell averaging 22.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.6 three-pointers per game in his last seven outings.

  • Heat's Bam Adebayo: Double-doubles in loss

    Adebayo chipped in 20 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-8 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to Toronto.

    Adebayo notched his tenth double-double of the season and has been on a tear recently, averaging 20.0 points, 10.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.2 blocks and 1.5 threes across 32.3 minutes in his last six games. Although Kel'el Ware led the team in rebounds off the bench with 13, both Adebayo and Ware have been elite sources of rebounds for fantasy managers all season.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Heat's Davion Mitchell: Scores 12 in loss

    Mitchell had 12 points (5-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 32 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to the Raptors.

    Mitchell has scored at least 10 points in four of his last five appearances, averaging 10.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, 8.2 assists, 1.0 steals, 0.2 blocks and 1.4 threes across 31.6 minutes in that span. With Tyler Herro (toe) missing three of his last four games, Miami has called upon Mitchell to handle the volume he was at the beginning of the season, and the latter has stepped up to the challenge yet again.

  • Heat's Kel'el Ware: Grabs 13 boards in loss

    Ware amassed six points (3-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 13 rebounds and two blocks across 19 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to Toronto.

    Ware logged fewer than 20 minutes for the second straight game, salvaging a quiet night with a team-high 13 rebounds. His role continues to change, seemingly on a nightly basis, making him a hard player to get a read on for fantasy purposes. While he does remain a must-roster player, it is looking like the majority of his value could end up being tied to rebounds and blocks only.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Heat's Keshad Johnson: Rare appearance Monday

    Johnson amassed four points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two steals across 13 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to Toronto.

    Johnson moved into the rotation for just the second time in the past eight games. Although he recorded a season-high two steals, nothing about this performance makes him a worthwhile fantasy target. In 10 appearances this season, Johnson is averaging 3.9 points in 11.9 minutes.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Heat's Dru Smith: 11 points in 20 minutes

    Smith chipped in 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 20 minutes during Monday's 106-96 loss to the Raptors.

    Smith played at least 20 minutes for just the fifth time this season, sliding into a slightly larger role after Nikola Jovic was forced from the floor due to an elbow injury. Tyler Herro also missed the game as a result of a toe issue, providing Smith with some added responsibility. There is no reason to prioritize him outside of deeper formats, but if both Jovic and Herro are forced to miss additional time, Smith could make for an interesting streaming option for anyone needing steals.

  • 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 Simone Fontecchio: Starting sans Herro

    Fontecchio will start against the Raptors on Monday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    With Tyler Herro (toe) ruled out less than 30 minutes before tipoff, Fontecchio will get the starting nod for the first time this season. Over his last five outings, the 30-year-old forward has averaged 8.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 18.4 minutes per game.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Heat's Tyler Herro: Late scratch Monday

    Herro (toe) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Raptors, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

    Herro was initially listed in the starting lineup, but the team has since downgraded him to out with the same toe injury that forced him to miss two games earlier this month. Simone Fontecchio will draw the start in Herro's place.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Heat's Kasparas Jakucionis: Available to play Monday

    Jakucionis (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Raptors.

    Jakucionis will be available for this matchup, but that doesn't mean he'll play. The rookie has made just one appearance this season, so he should carry minimal fantasy upside across all formats.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Heat's Kasparas Jakucionis: Probable for Monday

    Jakucionis is probable to play Monday versus the Raptors due to left ankle soreness.

    Jakucionis should be available for Monday's game, but that doesn't mean he'll play. He's made only one brief appearance for the Heat this season, which lasted one minute, and he missed both of his shot attempts.
