Miami Heat DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) will miss a 20th consecutive game on Thursday versus the 76ers. Maimi's second-best scorer has been out for five weeks, and it's not fully clear when he will be available again. His next chance to return will come on Friday against Houston. Duncan Robinson is back in the lineup and has benefited from Herro's absence in a big way, while Terry Rozier gets extra usage as well on the Heat backcourt. However, Miami's snipers could find it tough on Thursday against a Philadelphia team that gives up the eighth-fewest three-point attempts in the league.

Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier (knee) has been upgraded from probable to available to play in Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. A left knee contusion won't hold Rozier out in a matchup between the NBA's two slowest-paced offenses in terms of possessions per game. Over his past nine games, the 30-year-old combo guard is averaging 18.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.1 steals, and 2.7 three-pointers and should be deployed in all season-long fantasy leagues as Miami's primary ball handler in a stiff draw against a stifling Knicks defense. New York is holding enemy point guards to the fewest DraftKings points per game in 2023-24, diminishing Rozier's DFS appeal.

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) will sit out for the 19th consecutive game as he ramps up his work at practice to eventually return from medial tendinitis in his right foot. Herro's last game played was on February 23 and he's now missed 38 games this year. The Heat are still in contention for the sixth seed as they hover just half of a game back from the Indiana Pacers and one and a half games ahead of the Philadelphia 76ers. Herro was seen taking shots at practice last week and his return doesn't seem too far away. Duncan Robinson and Nikola Jovic will remain in the starting lineup while Herro is sidelined.

Miami Heat guard Duncan Robinson (back) is listed as probable for Tuesday's battle against the New York Knicks. The sharpshooter missed five games due to Left Facet Syndrome before returning on Sunday versus the Washington Wizards. Unfortunately, he struggled in that one, scoring six points while draining just two of his seven tries from downtown. With that said, Robinson logged 28 minutes, and with a game under his belt to shake off the rust caused by the five-game absence, he has an excellent chance to bounce back for DFS managers on Tuesday evening.

Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday's clash with the New York Knicks. Despite dealing with a left knee contusion, Rozier is expected to play in a battle between the Association's two slowest-paced offenses in terms of possessions per game after dropping 27 points with five threes and four steals in 35 minutes during Sunday's road win over the Washington Wizards. The 30-year-old combo guard is starting to get more comfortable in Miami digs, averaging 18.9 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.1 steals, and 2.7 three-pointers over his past nine games. Although Rozier should not be benched in season-long leagues with Tyler Herro (foot) still unavailable for the fantasy finals, the Knicks are holding opposing point guards to the fewest DraftKings points per game in 2023-24.
