Nikola Jovic - Out again Wednesday Jovic (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Impact Jovic will miss a third straight game due to a left ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up will come Saturday versus Phoenix, but he'd fallen out of the rotation before his absence.

Kevin Love - Questionable for Wednesday Love (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Impact Love has missed two of Miami's past four games due to a back issue and could remain sidelined Wednesday. Even if available, the veteran figures to have a limited role, as he's averaged 12.3 minutes per game across his last nine appearances (four starts).
5 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Josh Richardson - Questionable for Wednesday Richardson (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Impact Richardson is in danger of missing a third straight game due to an illness. He'd fallen out of the rotation before his absence, but Richardson is still averaging 18.8 minutes per game across eight appearances this season.

Jimmy Butler - Iffy for Wednesday Butler (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.
Impact Butler sat out the second half of Miami's back-to-back set Monday in Boston after experiencing soreness in his right knee during Sunday's loss in Toronto. If he can suit up, the All-Star forward may not have any limitations. Over his last six appearances, Butler has averaged 22.5 points, 5.7 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 0.8 steals in 33.7 minutes per game.

Kel'el Ware - Heads to G League The Heat assigned Ware (foot) to the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce on Monday.

Bam Adebayo - Remains productive in loss Adebayo produced 15 points (6-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, five assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Monday's 108-89 loss to the Celtics.
Impact Adebayo seemed to draw a softer assignment with the Celtics opting to rest Kristaps Porzingis, but he still had some trouble with the defense of Luke Kornet, who rejected a season-high six shots. Adebayo has established himself as a safe fantasy asset in recent seasons, but his surge in three-point attempts per game (2.8) has been a double-edged sword in nine-category leagues, adding another dimension to his value at the cost of a career-low 41.9 percent shooting clip from the field in 19 games this year. Fantasy managers hope Adebayo's efficiency will climb back up closer to his career norms as the second quarter of the 2024-25 campaign gets underway, but the 27-year-old three-time All-Star is averaging a productive 14.2 points, 10.7 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 three-pointers in 35.3 minutes per game over his last six outings.

Tyler Herro - Inefficient 19 points Monday Herro produced 19 points (6-19 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds and four assists over 35 minutes during Monday's 108-89 loss to Boston.
Impact Herro served as one of Miami's top scoring options in the absence of star swingman Jimmy Butler (knee), tying with teammate Jaime Jaquez Jr. for a team-high 19 points, but his showing also required 19 field-goal attempts to attain. The 24-year-old star combo guard has now scored at least 18 points in each of his last 14 appearances for the Heat, however, averaging 24.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 0.8 steals and 4.2 three-pointers in 37.0 minutes per game during this period. If Butler remains out of action for Wednesday's contest against the Lakers, Herro will figure to handle the heavy lifting on offense with an increase in ball-handling and playmaking responsibilities once again.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. - First double-double in spot start Jaquez closed with 19 points (5-14 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 9-12 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and three steals in 36 minutes during Monday's 108-89 loss to Boston.
Impact Starting at small forward for the injured Jimmy Butler (knee), Jaquez tallied his first double-double of the season while leading the Heat in rebounds (10) and co-leading the team in points (19) with Tyler Herro. Jaquez pick sees a noticeable improvement in fantasy appeal as a member of Miami's first unit dating back to the 23-year-old former first-rounder's rookie season a year ago, averaging 15.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 32.9 minutes across 21 games as a starter since 2023-24. If Butler is unable to return for Wednesday's tilt against the Lakers, Jaquez would be a quality streaming option with a short-term boost in value for fantasy managers.
