Miami Heat DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel,Miami Heat guard/forwardDuncan Robinson(back) is unavailable for Tuesday's matchup with the Golden State Warriors. Robinson will miss the game due to lower back pain. The 30-year-old had started five of the six games ahead of Tuesday. While Robinson is on the shelf, Jaime Jaquez Jr.,Davion Mitchell, andAlec Burksare the candidates who could see expanded roles this evening. Among the three players, Mitchell has delivered the most consistent fantasy output.

Miami Heat guard/forward Duncan Robinson (back) has been tagged as questionable on the injury report for Tuesday's matchup against the Golden State Warriors. He may be forced to exit the lineup due to lower back pain. Robinson has started in five of the past six games, and the Heat will certainly feel his absence if the three-point specialist needs to take time off. Jaime Jaquez Jr., Davion Mitchell, and Alec Burks are the candidates to step in for Robinson in the starting unit. Among the three players, Mitchell has delivered the most consistent fantasy output.

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (ankle) has been cleared to play ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. As expected, Wiggins has been cleared to play after being listed as probable on the injury report. Wiggins is back in action after missing the last two games due to an ankle issue. He should move back into the starting five and have his regular role in the rotation. Jaime Jaquez Jr. and Haywood Highsmith will likely see reduced roles with Wiggins back in the mix.

Miami Heat forward Andrew Wiggins (ankle) appeared on the injury report for Friday's matchup with the Houston Rockets but is considered probable despite the ankle impingement. Wiggins' tenure in Miami has been bumpy so far as he's appeared in 10 of a possible 19 games and has averaged 18.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.0 steals, and 1.0 blocks per contest with shooting splits of .422/.309/.755. His value is undeniable when he is on the court though, especially for fantasy managers in the playoffs of category leagues. With his return, Jaime Jaquez Jr. will likely take the biggest fantasy hit as he moves back to the bench.

Miami Heat guard/forward Alec Burks (back) will return to work on Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons. He has been cleared to return from a seven-game absence. Before injuring his back, Burks had started in three consecutive games. On Wednesday, he will come off the bench, which will limit Burks' fantasy value. As a reserve, Burks has contributed only 5.9 points per game in 16.7 minutes this season. Tyler Herro, Duncan, Robinson, Jaime Jaquez Jr., Bam Adebayo, and Kel'el Ware will start Wednesday's contest for the Heat.
