Miami Heat DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) didn't suit up for Saturday's loss to Boston. According to Butler, while speaking with TNT's Chris Haynes during Game 3, he remains without a return timeline. The 34-year-old is dealing with a sprained knee suffered during the Play-In, and with Miami down in this series, DFS managers may not see him back on the floor until next season. Terry Rozier (neck) is also sidelined, so Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo will remain the team's preferred offensive options. However, the recent play of Nikola Jovic and Jaime Jaquez Jr. is at least something positive from Butler's absence, with the duo expected to stay heavily involved moving forward.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson (hip) is questionable for Sunday's postseason clash with the Phoenix Suns. The veteran is dealing with a hip pointer. While Anderson carried an injury designation heading into Game 3, he was still out there, although he had just two points in eight minutes. The 30-year-old likely won't see much action in Game 4 if he suits up, considering Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker have absorbed most of the bench minutes. As a result, Anderson is irrelevant for DFS purposes on Sunday.

Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier (neck) won't play on Saturday against the Celtics. Miami stole Game 2 in Boston. However, it will be difficult for the Heat to win the series without their starting point guard. At this point, nobody can say for sure when he'll be back. But until that happens, Tyler Herro should continue to hold things down at the one. Herro is coming off a potent performance, accumulating a team-high 24 points with 14 assists, five rebounds, and one steal. Still, the C's will make some adjustments, meaning Herro may not be as productive in Game 3. Delon Wright, who has been coming in off the bench for relief, is questionable for this one. If Wright can't suit up, Patty Mills could make an appearance, although he likely won't do much for DFS managers.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson (hip) has been listed as questionable for the Game 3 matchup on Friday against the Phoenix Suns. Anderson has only played five minutes across two games in this series so far, and it's unclear how he'd fit back into the rotation if he was upgraded to active. His minutes have fluctuated all season long and it could come down to matchups. If he remains sidelined, however, Monte Morris, Naz Reid, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker will likely remain the main three players off of the bench.

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo logged a team-high 40 minutes in Wednesday's win over the Boston Celtics. He looked good in this one, finishing with a 21-point, 10-rebound double-double. The C's have had issues with Adebayo during this series, with the 26-year-old averaging 22.5 points and shooting 61.3% from the field. With that in mind, the C's will likely adjust heading into Game 3 on Saturday, so everyone on the Heat roster could be in for a long night.
