Miami Heat DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Miami Heat forward/center Kevin Love (conditioning) has picked up a questionable tag ahead of Wednesday's play-in action against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran has missed 12 straight contests due to personal reasons, but he is working on his conditioning to get back into game shape and could be available for Wednesday's win-or-go-home matchup. However, even if Love is cleared to return, fantasy managers should not expect him to make a big impact. During the regular season, Love was limited to 5.3 points and 4.1 rebounds in 10.9 minutes.

Miami Heat forward Nikola Jovic (hand) seems to be nearing his return to the lineup, as he has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's play-in game against the Chicago Bulls. The 21-year-old missed the final 27 regular-season games due to a fractured right hand. Jovic was cleared to resume on-court activities in late March, so he has been building up his form for quite some time. Before breaking his hand in February, Jovic was enjoying a fine campaign, averaging 10.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.8 assists in 25.1 minutes.

Miami Heat guard/forward Alec Burks (back) has been listed as available for Wednesday's meeting with the Chicago Bulls. A back problem kept Burks sidelined for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Washington Wizards, but he will be ready to help his team during the Play-In Tournament. Burks has made 10 consecutive starts for the Heat and seems poised to play a significant role in Wednesday's contest. As a member of the first unit, the 33-year-old has averaged 11.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.3 assists this season.

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (hamstring) is expected to be in the lineup on Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls, as the team has removed his name from the injury report. The 2022 NBA champion has been dealing with a hamstring issue late in the season, playing only twice this month. He was not in the lineup on Sunday against the Washington Wizards. Since returning to action, Wiggins has been limited to 24.5 minutes per game. However, he has still been productive, averaging 12.0 points with 5.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 1.5 steals.

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (rest) has been removed from the injury report and is good to go for Wednesday's contest against the Chicago Bulls in the Play-In Tournament. Miami rested Herro on Sunday as the team wrapped up its regular season schedule with a loss to the Washington Wizards. Herro has been a headache for the Bulls all year and must deliver another big performance for the Heat to keep their playoff hopes alive. In three regular-season meetings with Chicago, Herro averaged 24.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 6.3 assists.
