Miami Heat DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (shoulder) will play on Sunday versus the Hornets. The 23-year-old didn't suit up for Friday's win over the Orlando Magic because of a shoulder issue. Fortunately, it will only cost him a game. The 23-year-old is having the best season of his career, averaging 22.1 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.3 steals. He's also shot a career-high 41.2% from deep. But with Jimmy Butler (shoulder) out again on Sunday, Herro could be more productive than usual, meaning he needs to be featured in all fantasy lineups.

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (toe) remains out for Sunday's matchup with Charlotte. He will now miss his sixth consecutive game because of a sprained toe, and although he appears to be trending favorably, it's anyone's guess when he will be back in the lineup. Kevin Love (knee) also won't suit up. However, Tyler Herro (shoulder), Caleb Martin (ankle), and Kyle Lowry (hand) are in the lineup versus the Hornets. Lowry and Martin are usually hit-or-miss fantasy options. On the other hand, Herro and Bam Adebayo should absorb most of the scoring chances on Sunday.

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (shoulder) is questionable ahead of Sunday's showdown with the Charlotte Hornets. The 23-year-old is averaging a career-high 22.4 points and 41.2% shooting from deep this season. However, he's battled various ailments throughout the 2023-24 campaign, most recently sitting out Friday's win over the Orlando Magic because of a shoulder injury. Duncan Robinson got the start in that one, amassing 23 points in 41 minutes. With this in mind, if Herro doesn't suit up on Sunday, Robinson's fantasy potential will improve significantly.

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (toe) is doubtful ahead of Sunday's clash with Charlotte. The 24-year-old continues to battle a sprained toe, an injury that's kept him out of the lineup for Miami's previous six contests. Tyler Herro (shoulder) and Kevin Love (knee) are questionable, meaning the Heat may rely on Duncan Robinson, Bam Adebayo, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. for most of the production on the scoring end, with the trio combining for 63 points in Friday's three-point win over the Orlando Magic. Fortunately, Kyle Lowry (hand) could be back, although managers can't trust him in any fantasy format.

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins will move to the bench heading into Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This comes after Wiggins has posted back-to-back terrible outings. Head coach Steve Kerr is trying to shake up his lineup and is hopeful that a move to the bench will help Wiggins shake off the rust. Brandin Podziemski will start in place of Wiggins during Wednesday's game. He's normally good for at least double digit scoring, so he could be a low-end streaming option for Wednesday's game.
