Chicago Bulls point guard Tre Jones (foot) is not healthy enough to return to action on Wednesday against the Miami Heat. A left midfoot sprain ended Jones' regular season on a sour note, causing him to miss 12 games, and he still has no timetable for his return. With Lonzo Ball (wrist) unlikely to play on Wednesday, Josh Giddey and Coby White must carry the backcourt as the Bulls try to return to the playoffs for the first time since 2022.

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 guard/forward Pelle Larsson (ankle) is considered questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Chicago Bulls. After spraining his right ankle, Larsson has been forced to skip three games, and he may have to sit out another one. The Swedish rookie saw a big boost in playing time late in the season and made six consecutive starts before his injury. With Larsson unavailable, the Heat need to get more out of Kyle Anderson, Duncan Robinson, and Alec Burks (back), who is set to return from a one-game absence.

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 forward/center Kevin Love (conditioning) will not make his comeback in Wednesday's play-in game against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran big man will be unavailable for a 13th consecutive contest. Bam Adebayo and Kel'el Ware will continue to lead Miami's frontcourt in Wednesday's matchup. Both players are positioned well to have productive outings, as the Bulls allow the fifth-most fantasy points in the league to the center position and the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing power forwards.
