Miami Heat DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Miami Heat point guard Davion Mitchell (quadriceps) is dealing with a left quad contusion, which caused the team to list him as questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Cleveland Cavaliers. If Mitchell doesn't suit up against Cleveland, his next chance to play will come Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Mitchell has played 53 games this season, averaging 7.0 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 4.5 assists per game. Mitchell could be in line for more minutes if he's cleared, with Andrew Wiggins and Jaime Jaquez Jr. ruled out. If Mitchell is not cleared, Alec Burks and Terry Rozier will likely benefit from his absence.

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Wiggins is set to miss his fourth game in a row due to a lingering ankle issue. The expectation is that the Heat are going to continue using a committee approach to fill the void. That means, Duncan Robinson, Alec Burks, and Terry Rozier should all see increased roles in the rotation. Right now, Robinson is looking like the best streaming choice between the three guards with Wiggins still sidelined.

Golden State Warriors forward Jimmy Butler III (back) will return to action on Monday against the Charlotte Hornets. A back issue kept the veteran forward sidelined on Saturday against the Philadelphia 76ers, but he is ready to rejoin the lineup on Monday, with the team upgrading his status from probable to available. In eight games as a Warrior, Butler has averaged 16.4 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.6 assists, and 1.3 steals, while the team has posted a 7-1 record with him in the lineup.

Miami Heat guard Davion Mitchell (quadriceps) will not be in the lineup on Monday against the Washington Wizards. He hurt his left quadriceps in Sunday's matchup against the New York Knicks. Mitchell was a late addition to the injury report before the team ruled him out for Monday's action. Alec Burks and Terry Rozier may benefit from Mitchell's absence on Monday, though they have not provided consistent fantasy value and should be seen as risky options.

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. He will miss a third straight contest after initially carrying a questionable tag. Since his arrival from the Golden State Warriors, Wiggins' shooting has let him down, but he has been productive with averages of 17.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.2 steals. Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro will continue to carry most of the offensive load with Wiggins out.
